Technical Accounting Manager Bedfordshire (Hybrid)

My client is seeking a technically strong ACA to join its finance team in a newly created role. This is an excellent opportunity to become the technical accounting lead within a growing organisation, partnering with senior stakeholders on complex accounting matters while helping shape the finance function.

Working alongside an experienced leadership team, you'll provide technical accounting expertise across the business, influence key financial reporting decisions and play a leading role in developing accounting policies and reporting standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Act as the technical accounting lead, providing guidance on IFRS and UK GAAP.
  • Lead the accounting treatment of complex and non-routine transactions, preparing technical accounting papers and supporting key accounting judgements.
  • Develop and maintain accounting policies, ensuring compliance and best practice.
  • Assess and implement new accounting standards, supporting ongoing improvements to the financial reporting framework.
  • Support the preparation of statutory accounts and year-end reporting.
  • Act as the key technical contact for external auditors.
  • Strengthen financial controls, governance and accounting processes.
  • Partner with senior stakeholders across finance and the wider business on strategic initiatives and technical accounting matters.

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.
