About 1st Formations

At 1st Formations, we empower entrepreneurs to start, run, and grow their businesses with confidence. Running a business shouldn't be slowed down by company formation, statutory compliance, accounting, or payroll. From day one, these essentials should be seamless, reliable, and intelligently handled, freeing founders to focus on building and scaling.

We're a leading UK provider of company formation and compliance services, building a modern, fully integrated technology platform that supports founders at every stage of their journey. Our platform brings together formation, compliance, accounting, payroll, and ongoing business support in one cohesive experience.

No stitched-together services. No legacy workflows disguised as software. Just a single, scalable platform built for ambitious founders who want to move fast, stay compliant, and grow with confidence.

Why Join Us Now?

You'll be joining a business with strong momentum, clear direction, and real opportunity for progression.

  • £18m annual revenue, including £9m ARR
  • Over 1 million companies formed
  • Certified B Corp and Carbon Neutral Business
  • Forecast to grow 5x–10x over the next three years

The role:

We are looking for a diligent, reliable and conscientious individual to join our growing Compliance Department. In this role, you will carry out anti-money laundering (AML) checks in line with HMRC Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements and EU 5th Directive regulations. You will be the key point of contact for a high volume of customers, by email and telephone, guiding them through our due diligence requirements so their orders progress smoothly to completion.

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.
