About the Company

Our client is a well-established, multi-divisional organisation with a strong reputation in its sector and a genuinely growing finance function. They have a track record of developing accountants from their first industry move right through to senior finance positions, and offer a level of support and structure that's hard to find in a first industry role.

The Role

This is a rare opportunity for a newly qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) to step into a broad, hands-on finance role with real responsibility from day one. Rather than being confined to a narrow reporting function, you'll manage the accounting function for one of the organisation's divisions and supervise a small finance team, giving you exposure and ownership well beyond what most first industry roles offer.

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.

Why Apply

  • Genuine breadth from day one: this role covers financial controls, month-end, audit, payroll and team supervision, rather than a single narrow function, giving you a much stronger grounding than most first industry roles
  • Real people management experience early in your career, supervising a small team rather than waiting years for that opportunity elsewhere
  • A clear, structured route for career development within a multi-divisional organisation, with genuine scope to progress as the finance function grows
  • A supportive, collaborative team environment where you'll be backed rather than left to sink or swim in a new industry role
