Build the finance function — don’t just maintain it
We’re partnering with an established international SaaS technology business entering its next phase of development following a recent take-private transaction.
They are looking for a technically strong, hands-on Senior Management Accountant to take ownership of the month-end close and help transform the day-to-day finance operation.
This is not a role where you will inherit a fully optimised finance function and simply follow existing processes, it's a transformational environment and that should be a key attraction for you.
The business is looking for someone who can improve the quality and reliability of financial reporting, strengthen balance-sheet controls, resolve historical issues and create more efficient, clearly documented processes.
The current environment includes:
- A month-end close that needs greater structure, control and predictability
- Balance-sheet accounts requiring further reconciliation and review
- A multi-entity, international finance operation
- Legacy processes and undocumented system workarounds
- An ERP environment that is expected to evolve over the coming period
The role
The successful person will form the critical link between the Financial Controller and the junior finance team: technically credible, comfortable remaining hands-on and capable of raising the standard of the wider function.
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.
Working closely with the Financial Controller, you will own the production of the month-end close across a multi-entity international SaaS business.
You will be responsible for ensuring that reporting is accurate, reconciliations are robust and issues are identified and resolved rather than carried forward.
Responsibilities will include:
- Owning the month-end close across multiple international entities
- Producing complete and accurate monthly management accounts
- Preparing reporting and analysis for senior management and the board
- Completing and reviewing detailed balance-sheet reconciliations
- Investigating and resolving historical accounting issues
- Managing multi-currency consolidations and intercompany accounting
- Ensuring journals, accruals, prepayments and deferred revenue are accurately recorded
- Supporting VAT, tax, statutory reporting and external audit requirements
- Improving financial controls and month-end procedures
- Documenting processes and eliminating reliance on undocumented workarounds
- Supporting cash-flow forecasting and wider financial planning
- Identifying opportunities for systems improvement, automation and better use of data
- Providing technical guidance and support to junior members of the finance team
About you
You will be a qualified accountant — ACA, ACCA or CIMA — with strong, recent experience within a SaaS business.
You should already be operating at Senior Management Accountant, Finance Manager or equivalent level and be comfortable taking end-to-end ownership of the close rather than contributing to only one part of it.

Most importantly, you will be someone who enjoys getting into the detail.

This role will suit someone who wants to build better processes, create lasting improvements and be recognised as a senior technical presence within the finance team.
