About The Role

Working as part of our Operations team, you will be responsible for the planning of production and material supply activities in line with project and customer needs to ensure all material is available in a timely and cost-effective manner to support the planned build/consumption dates.

  • Ensure demand plans are clearly communicated to suppliers, production, and projects, working closely with the respective teams to gain early visibility of requirements.
  • Maintain accurate ERP data (e.g. supplier commit dates, lead-times, MOQs) to ensure accurate MRP/PMRP.
  • Create and maintain clear-to-build reporting, identifying constraints, risks, and actions, ensuring clear and timely reporting to stakeholders, actively managing and resolving material supply issues.
  • Provide necessary inputs into S&OP and MRP processes and manage the outputs.
  • Responsible for ensuring all inbound and outbound shipments are handled appropriately by working closely with suppliers and our Logistics & Trade Compliance Co-ordinator (value of goods declared, process adherence, etc).
  • Monitor supplier performance KPIs and support supplier and process improvements.

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.
