Senior Accounting Manager
Marc Daniels is partnering with a well‑renowned organisation brand to recruit a high‑impact Senior Accounting Manager to lead a large team across management accounting, operational finance and balance sheet governance. This role sits at the centre of performance reporting, cost control and financial integrity, offering exceptional exposure across Operations, Supply Chain and senior leadership.
You’ll oversee a sizeable team responsible for delivering accurate management accounts, driving operational insight and ensuring the balance sheet is tightly controlled across multiple sites and entities. You’ll play a pivotal role in how the business understands performance — challenging numbers, improving processes and strengthening the link between finance and operations. With transformation underway, you’ll also lead improvements across systems, reporting and month‑end efficiency.
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.
