Job title: Management Accountant, Women's Health Pharma
Location: Paddington, London (Hybrid, three days on site)
Employment type: Full time, permanent
Company: PCC (on behalf of a confidential client)
About the company
Our client is a women's health pharmaceutical business based in Paddington, London. Since its UK launch in 2022 it has grown rapidly in one of the fastest-growing segments of the UK pharmaceutical market. It has kept a close, collaborative team culture throughout that growth.
The role
The Management Accountant will lead both the monthly close and the planning and forecasting cycle, reporting to the Finance & Operations Director. In many larger pharmaceutical organisations these responsibilities are split between two roles. Here they sit with one person.
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.
