Interim Project Accountant

Location: London, hybrid
Daily rate: £300 - £350 per day Inside IR35
Duration: 2-3 months

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Project Accountant to support the successful financial integration of a newly acquired organisation into an established group.

This is a hands-on interim assignment for a self-sufficient finance professional who has experience managing acquisition integrations, finance system implementations, or complex finance projects.

Key responsibilities

  • Lead the finance workstream for the integration of a newly acquired entity.
  • Manage financial due diligence and oversee the integration process.
  • Set up the new entity within the finance system.
  • Establish a new chart of accounts and ensure the finance structure is fit for purpose.
  • Coordinate the transfer of bank accounts and other financial arrangements.
  • Design and implement reporting for the new entity.
  • Review VAT implications and ensure compliance throughout the transition.
  • Work closely with operational stakeholders to ensure a seamless integration into the wider organisation.

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.
