About The Role
We are looking for a highly organised, analytical, and detail-oriented Procurement Data Analyst to join our Global Procurement Services team.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is looking to build strong foundations in procurement, data analysis, and global supply chain operations. While the role is well suited to someone starting their professional journey, we are looking for someone who is motivated to develop deep expertise and grow within the role and the wider organisation over the medium term.
You will receive extensive training and support, giving you the opportunity to develop valuable technical and analytical skills while becoming a key contributor to the team. Accuracy, structure, and attention to detail are essential, as the data managed in this role directly supports purchasing decisions and cost management across our global operations.
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.
