The Opportunity
We are looking for an experienced and agile Management Accountant to join our finance team at an ambitious business with exciting plans for growth.
As the company continues to grow, this role offers the opportunity to become an important part of the finance function, combining strong management accounting fundamentals with hands-on financial processes and continuous improvement.
The role will be focused on the production of management accounts, analysis, and balance sheet control, with the remaining time involving ownership and oversight of other day-to-day finance processes.
This role would suit someone who combines strong management accounting skills with a hands-on approach, enjoys understanding the story behind the numbers, and is motivated to improve processes.
This is an office-based role, and the successful candidate will be expected to work on-site five days per week.
Key Roles and Responsibilities

- Prepare supporting schedules, reconciliations, and analysis for the period-end process.
- Assist with monthly reporting and provide meaningful analysis of financial performance.
- Investigate variances and unusual movements, working with colleagues across the business where appropriate.
- Maintain strong control over balance sheet accounts.
- Support the continued development of management information and reporting as the needs of the business evolve.
- Assist with ad-hoc financial analysis to support the Finance team and wider business.
- Take ownership of the fixed asset register and associated accounting.
- Oversee the Barclaycard and staff expenses process, ensuring appropriate controls and timely processing.
- Oversee utilities billing and provide finance support during contract renewals.
- Complete National Statistics reporting and other relevant statutory submissions.
- Support the preparation and submission of VAT returns when required.
- Assist with the external audit process, providing schedules, supporting documentation, and responding to queries.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
As we modernise the finance function, Management Accountant will be encouraged to identify and drive opportunities to improve processes, controls, and reporting. This may include simplifying existing processes, improving the quality or timeliness of information, and helping the department make better use of systems and data.
The role will therefore continue to evolve, giving the successful candidate exposure to a broad range of finance processes and the opportunity to develop their responsibilities over time.

- Experience preparing or contributing significantly to monthly management accounts.
- Balance sheet reconciliation and financial control experience.
- Good analytical skills, with the ability to investigate financial information and identify issues.
- Strong Excel skills.
- Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to producing accurate work.
- The ability to organise and prioritise a varied workload and consistently meet deadlines.

- A willingness to take ownership of both management accounting responsibilities and practical finance processes.
- A continuous-improvement mindset and an interest in making processes more efficient and effective.
- The ability to communicate effectively with finance and non-finance colleagues.
