West London - 2 days per week in the office, with flexibility for the right person
I am partnering with an international events business to recruit a Senior Procurement Manager into its global procurement team. You’ll lead a broad portfolio of indirect categories, including logistics, specialist technology and the goods and services supporting international event delivery. Combining hands-on sourcing with strategic ownership, you’ll strengthen supplier governance and improve how the business buys across multiple markets.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and deliver sourcing strategies across logistics, specialist technology, and wider event-related goods and services.
- Lead complex tenders and commercial negotiations, overseeing contracts, variations, and dispute resolution.
- Strengthen supplier management through business reviews, clear performance frameworks, and measurable KPIs.
- Connect global and local procurement teams to consolidate requirements and improve value across event locations.
- Drive improvements in procurement processes and digital tools, embedding sustainability and supplier risk management.
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.
