Management Accountant
Bury - Financial Services
£50,000 - £55,000
DON'T JUST JOIN A BUSINESS. HELP SHAPE IT.
This is not a “keep the numbers ticking over” role.
This is for the Management Accountant who looks at a business and thinks:
“I can make this better.”
The processes could be sharper.
The reporting could be smarter.
The numbers could tell a better story.
The business could have more structure.
And you want to be the person who makes that happen.
We're partnering with a long-established financial services business in Bury that is at an exciting point in its journey.
They're looking for a Management Accountant to work directly with the Finance Director - someone who isn't afraid to roll their sleeves up, challenge the norm and get stuck into the detail.
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.
