Uxbridge High School is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Management Accountant to join our Finance Team.
This is a senior technical finance role and presents an excellent opportunity for a fully qualified accountant to play a key part in delivering accurate, timely and insightful financial management across the school.
The successful candidate will join a hardworking and committed team that has made significant progress in strengthening financial operations, improving processes and embedding a culture of best value. We are now looking for a technically strong finance professional who can build on these foundations, bring rigour and accuracy to financial reporting, and support continuous improvement across our finance systems, controls and processes.
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.
