The Opportunity

As a Consultant at Proxima, you will be part of client-facing teams delivering high-impact commercial, sourcing, and supplier initiatives. You will support the development of insights, contribute to solution design, and play an active role in delivering outcomes, not just recommendations.

This is not a passive learning role. At Proxima, we are practitioner-consultants. You will build experience quickly, take responsibility early, and work alongside clients to deliver real, measurable change.

What You’ll Do

  • Support delivery across client engagement
  • Contribute to category management and sourcing activities, supporting strategy development and executions
  • Assist with opportunity identification, supplier research, and commercial analysis
  • Build structured fact bases that turn data into clear insights
  • Analyze data to inform decisions
  • Use Excel and data analysis techniques to identify value, risk, and performance improvement opportunities
  • Support benefits tracking and progress against delivery milestones
  • Ensure analyses are accurate, structured, and decision-oriented
  • Engage and collaborate with stakeholders
  • Work with client stakeholders to gather requirements and align objectives
  • Communicate findings clearly and professionally with team members and clients
  • Support workshops, working sessions, and day-to-day client interactions
  • Work in a global, flexible model
  • Operate in a hybrid environment, balancing client, home, and office-based work
  • Travel as required to support client delivery and team collaboration

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.
