An established, purpose-led organisation is seeking an experienced Interim Finance Director / Head of Finance to provide strategic financial leadership during an important period of transition.

Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you will work closely with senior stakeholders and the Board, supporting commercial decision-making, investment opportunities, financial planning and organisational growth.

This is a hands-on leadership role requiring a commercially minded finance professional with strong experience in project-led environments, investment appraisal and complex financial modelling.

  • Partner with the Managing Director and Board on strategic decisions.
  • Review, challenge and develop complex financial and investment models.
  • Support funding strategies, commercial projects and business cases.
  • Oversee financial governance, controls, audit and statutory reporting.
  • Provide leadership and support to the wider finance function.
  • Deliver meaningful insight to support long-term organisational objectives.

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.
