Senior Financial Accountant
Wolverhampton, hybrid
£60,000 + Bonus
Our client is a PE backed manufacturer with ambitious growth plans over the coming years. Following continued investment and growth, they are now looking for a Senior Financial Accountant to join the team and take ownership of the day to day running of the accounts.
This is a genuine number two role to the Finance Director, ideal for someone who wants real ownership rather than being one of many in a large finance function.
Reporting directly to the Finance Director, you will be the hands on engine room of the finance function, owning month end close, management accounts and the balance sheet. You will also play a key role in supporting strategic planning, driving cash flow performance and business partnering with senior and board level stakeholders across the business.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
