Hiring Manager

Julie Garnham

Procurement & Third Party Manager

At Ageas, we're looking for a commercially minded and highly proactive Procurement & Third-Party Manager to join our growing team. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced procurement professional who can confidently manage technology and business supplier relationships from sourcing and contract negotiation through to performance management and ongoing governance. You'll play a pivotal role in ensuring our suppliers deliver value, innovation, resilience, and excellent service to support key business and technology objectives.

This role requires someone who can operate with a high degree of independence, while confidently challenging stakeholders when needed to achieve the right commercial and operational outcomes. Managing a portfolio of IT, technology, and business service suppliers that underpin our day-to-day operations, you'll be responsible for driving cost efficiencies, managing risk, strengthening supplier performance, and ensuring compliance within a regulated environment.

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.
