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.

As the finance lead for our international business, you will assist in preparing the business to scale globally. You will be responsible for budgeting, financial planning, pricing strategy, compliance, and financial reporting, working alongside the wider finance function under the CFO.

This role is an excellent opportunity for a finance professional who has operated as a finance manager or senior analyst within a department or business unit and is ready to take the next step into broader financial leadership.

  • Establish the financial foundation for the international business and prepare it for scaling
  • Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes
  • Support pricing strategy and financial modeling for international programs and products
  • Ensure financial compliance with company policies, international regulations, and reporting standards
  • Collaborate with the broader finance team to align reporting, controls, and processes
  • Provide financial insights and recommendations to support growth and decision-making
  • Help establish scalable financial processes and reporting in the first 3–6 months

Pre-flight Checklist

  • 6+ years of experience in finance, FP&A, financial operations, or similar
  • Experience managing budgets, forecasts, and financial reporting for a business unit or function
  • Strong understanding of P&L management, financial planning, and operational finance
  • Experience partnering with business leaders on strategic and operational decisions
  • Ability to operate independently while collaborating with distributed teams
