A fast-growing international technology business is seeking a Senior Financial Strategy Analyst to join its Finance team on a 3-month fixed term contract.
You'll join a high-performing Financial Strategy function during a busy budgeting and reporting period, working closely with senior Finance leadership. This is a hands-on senior IC role for someone who can hit the ground running, work autonomously and take ownership from day one.

- Support the annual budgeting process, including financial modelling, consolidating inputs and stress-testing assumptions.
- Extract, combine and reconcile data across finance and commercial systems.
- Improve financial processes, templates and reporting methodologies.
- Prepare Board presentations, KPI packs and management reporting.
- Work across the wider Finance team to resolve issues and manage workload during key reporting periods.
- Take ownership of assigned workstreams and deliver high-quality outputs with minimal supervision.
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.
