📍 Glasgow | ⏱️ Full-time | 💼 Internal Payroll Team

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Payroll Analyst to join our team in Glasgow. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of US payroll operations while playing a key role in driving controls, governance, and continuous improvement.

Working closely with the Regional Payroll Manager, you’ll be responsible for ensuring payroll is processed accurately and on time, while maintaining strong compliance and controls. You’ll also act as a key point of contact for stakeholders and support ongoing process improvements.

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.
