We're working with a leading global consulting firm to recruit an experienced EMEA Temporary Service Provider Manager with a background in resource management and contingent workforce governance.
This is a strategic role, sitting at the intersection of Operations, Legal, Procurement, and Consulting, ensuring external consultants are engaged efficiently, compliantly, and commercially across multiple jurisdictions.
You'll work closely with senior stakeholders across the business to oversee the end-to-end temporary service provider lifecycle, from onboarding and compliance through to supplier management, governance, and continuous process improvement.
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.
