Senior Financial Controller Liverpool City Centre (Hybrid) £70,000 - £85,000 2/3 days office - flexible

A fast growing regulated business is modernising its finance function - automating processes, upgrading systems and building a smarter, more efficient operation. Subsequently they have a newly created position for a Senior Financial Controller who can blend hands on technical finance with transformation, automation and systems improvement.

This role offers clear progression to Head of Financial Operations in the near future.

The Role

Working under an impressive Finance Director, you will lead day to day finance operations while driving improvements across systems, reporting and processes. Working closely with senior leaders, you'll help build a finance function that's robust, data driven and future ready.

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.
