Project Manager - Finance Transformation
Project Manager – Finance Transformation (Remote)
£80K + (Negotiable)
We’re partnering with a fast-growing, private equity-backed global organisation embarking on a significant finance transformation programme. Following a comprehensive review of its finance operating model, an opportunity has arisen for an experienced Project Manager to lead a portfolio of finance transformation initiatives.
This is not an ERP implementation role, nor is it a hands-on finance position. Instead, you’ll sit within a central transformation team, partnering closely with Finance to deliver large-scale finance transformation, embed new operating models and standardise ways of working across a complex, international, multi-entity organisation.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of a varied portfolio of finance transformation projects, ranging from targeted process improvements to large-scale operating model change. Your focus is on finance transformation, ensuring robust, centralised, and scalable finance processes and ways of working are successfully embedded across the organisation.
Key Responsibilities
- Leading multiple finance transformation projects from initiation through to successful delivery
- Managing a portfolio of initiatives arising from a strategic finance transformation programme
- Driving process standardisation and operational improvements across the finance function
- Supporting the transition to a more centralised finance operating model
- Delivering finance transformation initiatives across multiple countries, ensuring consistent processes while managing local stakeholder engagement
- Leading communications, stakeholder engagement, training, and business readiness activities
- Building trusted relationships with senior finance leaders and executive stakeholders
- Presenting progress, risks, and recommendations confidently to Board-level audiences
- Collaborating with the ERP programme team while maintaining focus on finance transformation rather than system delivery
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.
