About The Role

The Management Accountant plays a key role in supporting the financial performance and growth of the Attivo Group. Working closely with the Finance Manager, you will be responsible for ensuring the accuracy and integrity of financial records across multiple group entities, producing high-quality management accounts, and providing meaningful financial insight to support decision-making.

This is a varied and hands-on role that combines core management accounting responsibilities with involvement in acquisitions, financial due diligence, cash flow management, VAT reporting, budgeting, and audit support. The successful candidate will contribute to maintaining robust financial controls while supporting Attivo’s continued growth and development.

About You

You are a qualified accountant with proven experience in a management accounting role and a strong understanding of financial reporting, reconciliations, and financial controls. You are highly organised, analytical, and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage competing priorities and work proactively in a fast-paced environment.

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.
