Senior Procurement Manager – Enterprise Technology

Hertfordshire (3 days per week)

£80,000–£90,000 + 20% Bonus + Excellent Benefits

Talent Drive are partnering with one of the UK's leading consumer businesses to recruit a Senior Procurement Manager into their established Technology Procurement team.

This is a strategic opportunity to lead procurement across the organisation's Enterprise Enablement Technology portfolio, partnering with senior stakeholders to shape commercial strategy across critical business systems that support a multi billion pound organisation.

The Opportunity

  • You will be responsible for procurement across a broad Enterprise Software portfolio, leading sourcing strategy and supplier relationships across technology that enables key corporate functions.
  • Working closely with Technology and Business leaders, you'll influence major procurement decisions while managing a small team and helping shape the future direction of this growing category (Enterprise Applications, ERP Platforms, HR, Payroll & Workforce Management, Legal & Finance Technology, Enterprise Software and Business Platforms).

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.
