Job Description: Joint Venture Accountant

We are supporting a client with an urgent requirement for an experienced Joint Venture Accountant to join an initial 6-month (outside IR35) contract. The role can be worked on a hybrid/remote basis with occasional client site travel. Given the urgent nature of this contract we require someone to be able to start ASAP.

The key requirement for this role is hands-on experience running and managing a Joint Venture (JV) month-end timetable. You'll take responsibility for coordinating the month-end process and ensuring key JV accounting activities are completed accurately and to agreed deadlines.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and manage the JV month-end timetable, ensuring activities are completed accurately and on time
  • Perform and coordinate JV month-end accounting activities, including journals, reconciliations and financial close
  • Support the day-to-day operation of Joint Venture Accounting processes
  • Create and maintain JV master data, where required
  • Investigate and resolve finance/process issues arising through the month-end cycle
  • Work closely with Finance, SAP and wider business stakeholders to ensure an effective month-end close
  • Support process improvements and ensure appropriate financial controls are maintained

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.
