About the Role

This is a newly created senior position offering responsibility for the performance and development of an established office. It provides a good route for an experienced Practice Manager or Senior Manager looking for greater leadership responsibility within a growing accountancy group.

Continued investment and expansion has created an opportunity for an experienced accountant to take responsibility for an established Sheffield office.

Reporting to regional leadership, this is a broad role combining team management, client portfolio responsibility, technical oversight and the day-to-day running of the practice.

  • Lead and develop a small team of qualified and part-qualified accountants.
  • Manage a portfolio of clients and maintain strong senior relationships.
  • Oversee and review statutory accounts and management accounts.
  • Maintain oversight of bookkeeping, VAT and payroll delivery.
  • Ensure compliance with UK GAAP, Companies Act and HMRC requirements.
  • Manage client meetings, technical queries and service issues.
  • Improve workflows, controls and quality standards across the office.
  • Support recruitment and development of the team as the practice grows.

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.
