Senior Accountant - Treasury

Are you an articulate, experienced finance professional who can flourish in a large, complex organisation and who is credible in front of senior officers and elected officials? Would you relish the opportunity of being involved in treasury management?

Are you passionate about combining the highest levels of customer service whilst also delivering on challenging output-based performance targets? Would you like to work for a fascinating organisation, combining ancient traditions and historic functions with its role as a modern local authority at the centre of the Capital, serving the ‘Square Mile’ and providing services that have local, regional, and sometimes national significance?

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.
