About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Systems Accountant to join the Guinness Team. This is a permanent, full-time vacancy based in our Oldham, Bower House office. We offer hybrid working, blending office days with working from home.

The overall purpose of the role is to manage financial systems and associated services across Guinness to provide high quality financial reporting, controls and processes supporting strong financial management.

What we’re looking for

We are looking for someone who has experience of developing financial systems within a complex organisation, ensuring robust financial reporting, data integrity, and compliance with accounting and audit requirements. Using your expertise in Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP (or equivalent), you will drive system improvements, support strategic change initiatives, and deliver high-quality financial solutions while managing projects and stakeholders effectively.

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.
