Management Accountant
Oxford | Circa £50,000 | Hybrid
Working in football sounds exciting. Working in finance there means you actually get to understand the business behind what happens on the pitch.
You’ll take proper ownership of month end and management accounts, but without inheriting a financial crime scene.
The reporting templates are established, the working files are well reconciled and the processes are already there. So you can concentrate on doing a good job and developing your commercial understanding.
And this isn’t ordinary management accounting.
Every fixture creates its own financial activity. Hospitality, food and drink, programmes, travel, visiting clubs, income, costs and settlements. You’ll get close enough to the operation to understand how what happens on matchday eventually becomes a set of numbers.
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.
You don't need to be a football expert. You just need to be interested enough to learn.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- You’ll own the monthly close and prepare management accounts, including journals, accruals, prepayments and reconciliations.
- You’ll investigate variances, maintain supporting schedules and produce clear management information.
- You’ll also account for home and away fixtures and gradually get involved with budgeting, forecasting and wider analysis.

- ACA, ACCA or CIMA is useful, but not essential.
What You’ll Get:
- Circa £50,000
- Hybrid working
- Proper ownership of month end
- Exposure to professional football
- Established systems and processes
- Scope to develop into wider commercial finance work
