Senior Management Accountant

Location: Leeds - Hybrid working

Department: Finance

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Management Accountant to join a high performing Finance team and play a key role in delivering accurate, timely and insightful financial reporting. This is a hands-on role with responsibility for managing a small team, overseeing month-end activities and management accounts, maintaining strong financial controls and supporting statutory and tax compliance. You’ll also have the opportunity to improve processes, strengthen ways of working and contribute to wider Finance projects.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Manage a small Finance team and oversee day-to-day operations.
  • Lead month-end close activities across Supply Chain and central business areas, ensuring accurate and timely reporting.
  • Prepare and consolidate UK management accounts, including journals, reconciliations, and reporting packs.
  • Oversee key accounting areas including fixed assets, accruals, prepayments, staff costs, property, and IT costs.
  • Manage annual statutory reporting and support external audit and tax requirements.
  • Partner with senior stakeholders to monitor expenditure, maintain effective cost controls, and ensure spend is accurately recorded against budget.
  • Review balance sheet reconciliations and drive the timely resolution of outstanding queries and issues.

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.
