Role Purpose
About The Role
We're looking for a Payments Operations Assistant to help us keep supplier and employee payments accurate, controlled, and compliant. You'll be right at the heart of our payment operations — running payment cycles, posting and reconciling bank transactions, and processing manual payments — all while upholding the financial controls and audit standards that keep the business running smoothly.
What You'll Be Doing
Payment Run Management
- Prepare scheduled supplier payment runs within Coupa
- Review payment proposals for accuracy and completeness before submission
- Ensure all required approvals are obtained before submitting to your Supervisor
- Follow payment calendars and cut-off times
Manual & Urgent Payments
- Process manual and ad hoc payments in line with company controls
- Validate supporting documentation and approvals before submission
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.
