RECfinancial are partnering with a successful privately owned business in Leicester in the appointment of a Senior Accountant.

The role is commutable from all areas of Leicester / Leicestershire, Nottingham, Derby, Coventry / Warwickshire.

Working closely with the Directors, you’ll take responsibility for consolidating and reporting on the financial position of the family, covering commercial and residential property, investments, family investment companies, trusts and business interests across the UK and internationally.

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.
