As a Contract & Procurement Manager, you will play a key role in the commercial management, procurement, and governance of a diverse portfolio of strategic supplier and technology contracts. Working closely with programme teams, procurement, legal, and senior stakeholders, you'll ensure robust commercial oversight, effective supplier performance, and value-driven contract delivery across complex business and technology initiatives.

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.
