Financial Controller | Hospitality | London | 15-Month Contract

We’re partnering with a growing, multi-site hospitality business to hire a Financial Controller who will take ownership of the day-to-day finance function and play a key role in its continued growth.

This is a broad, hands-on role covering financial control, reporting, audit, payroll, systems improvement, and FP&A. You’ll lead and develop the finance team while working closely with senior leadership to improve processes, strengthen controls, and provide meaningful commercial insight.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
