The opportunity

We are experiencing growth across all categories, but specifically within Advanced Analytics. This would be an exciting time to join a team of exceptional people driven to influencing and shaping Analytics outcomes for our clients.

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 the analysis of commercial bids as part of a procurement tender process
  • Analyse spend data
  • Utilise client data to identify cost-saving and optimisation opportunities
  • Assist consultants in identifying cost-saving and optimisation opportunities in procurement
  • Collate supplier responses through scenario-based tools and scorecards for consultants to compare cost-savings available
  • Create data visualisation tools to support clients, automate and solve business problems and processes
  • Other pertinent data activities, such as data collation, creation of data visualisation for PowerPoint decks, and optimisation of files
  • 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.
