Category Manager / Procurement Manager - up to £60k per annum - Worthing (Hybrid 2 days in the office)

About You

We're looking for an experienced procurement professional with a strong background in category management and strategic sourcing.

To be successful, you'll demonstrate experience in:

  • Managing the full procurement lifecycle
  • Developing and executing category strategies
  • Commercial analysis and modelling
  • Delivering procurement activity within regulated or public sector environments
  • Applying the Procurement Act within sourcing activities

Experience within utilities, engineering, infrastructure, maintenance, or asset management procurement would be advantageous, although we're keen to hear from candidates with experience across other regulated sectors.

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.
