Senior or Principal Recruitment Consultant

Procurement & Supply Chain, Food and FMCG

Edinburgh, Hybrid

£40,000 to £50,000 basic plus up to 35% commission

What would improve your current recruitment desk?

  • A commission scheme paying up to 35%.
  • Dedicated Resourcer support.
  • The freedom to build a specialist market across the UK and internationally.
  • Senior progression and influence without being pushed into people management.

All four are available here.

You will join an established food and FMCG recruitment business and develop a specialist procurement and supply-chain market within it.

The opportunity would suit an experienced recruiter who still enjoys billing but wants to become better known within a defined, commercially important sector.

Food and drink manufacturers cannot simply stop buying ingredients, managing packaging costs, forecasting demand or moving products when hiring budgets tighten.

They still need people who can:

  • Secure ingredients, packaging and commodities.
  • Improve demand and supply planning.
  • Manage logistics and inventory.
  • Reduce supply-chain risk.
  • Keep production moving.
  • Lead procurement and supply-chain functions.

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.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

That gives you a market built around business-critical appointments rather than discretionary hiring.

Your desk could cover:

  • Procurement and strategic sourcing.
  • Ingredients, packaging and commodity buying.
  • Demand and supply planning.
  • S&OP and integrated business planning.
  • Logistics and inventory.
  • Procurement and supply-chain leadership.

You can work across the UK and internationally, giving you room to build a deeper specialism without relying on one small geographical market.

You will also have dedicated Resourcer support.

That means more time speaking to clients, winning assignments and managing relationships. Less time disappearing into LinkedIn because six searches need running before lunch.

The business has a flat structure built around experienced billers.

You can progress, earn well and have a meaningful voice without inheriting management responsibility you never wanted.

There are no pointless activity targets. You will work directly with experienced directors and be trusted to manage your market properly.
