- Reconciliations, payment runs, and financial controls
- Tax liabilities and cash reserves
- Personal balance sheet and net worth reporting
- Business performance, costs, and profitability
- Property, investments, financing, and major purchases
- GBP, EUR, and USD cash positions
- Coordination with accountants, banks, lawyers, and advisers

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.

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.
Requirements
- Proactive, discreet, commercially minded, and confident enough to question the numbers.
- Ideally have strong management accounting experience, excellent Excel skills, experience with budgeting and cash flow forecasting, and a solid understanding of financial controls.
- Experience with QuickBooks, Xero, or similar is useful.
- ACA, ACCA, or CIMA part qualified, finalist, or qualified candidates are welcome.
- Family office experience is not essential. Experience in an entrepreneurial, owner-managed, or multi-entity environment could be just as relevant.
