The Opportunity

This is a hybrid FP&A Analyst role based in our Swindon office, requiring the successful candidate to be in the office 3 days per week.

We’re looking to hire a Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) Analyst to bring financial insight to life across our organisation. This role focuses on translating data into clear, compelling stories that inform senior decision-making.

The ideal candidate will excel at connecting disparate inputs into a structured financial narrative, own analytical processes, and support long-term strategic planning—particularly our 5-year plan. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys spotting patterns, constructing financial models, and taking ownership of insights that drive business decisions.

  • Bonus scheme: On-target bonus (7.5%)
  • Pension: Contribute up to 5% (matched 5% by Openwork)

    • Income protection
    • Death in service (4× salary offer)

    • 27 days holiday + bank holidays

    • Tailored allowances (e.g., eye care, wellness)

Key Responsibilities

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.
