Hackett's Procurement Transformation Capability
The European practice for Hackett is well established across Transformation, Benchmarking, and Advisory. (Advisory is a multi-year programme-based model providing intellectual property and coaching to a wide client base).
We are now building a Procurement Transformation capability in the UK and across our European practice. Working with C-suite executives and Procurement leadership teams, we design and implement change/ transformation programmes to deliver World-Class performance.
As well as functional design and change, we have enviable technology capability. Our North American Coupa team has more than 80 certified consultants; we completed our first implementation over 10 years ago and became one of their first Premier partners. We have completed some of the solution’s most complex and largest global implementations; we co-designed the Coupa Inventory Module and are still the only partner to successfully implement a GAAP compliant Coupa Inventory solution.
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.
