Working closely with suppliers, Finance, Operations, and the Commercial Compliance & Supply Chain Manager, the role ensures the timely flow of goods and services, maintains procurement compliance and audit readiness, and provides accurate management information to support operational decision-making.

  • Proactively monitor purchase orders, deliveries, Proofs of Delivery, and supplier invoices, identifying and resolving issues to support continuity of supply.
  • Maintain accurate procurement data across business systems, including procurement, finance, CRM, and BOM management platforms, ensuring consistency and data integrity.
  • Maintain procurement documentation and records to support audit readiness, governance requirements, and regulatory compliance activities.
  • Monitor supplier lead times, delivery commitments, and order status, proactively escalating delays, supply risks, or performance concerns where required.
  • Manage day-to-day supplier communications, ensuring timely updates, effective coordination, and resolution of operational procurement issues.
  • Support supplier onboarding activities and maintain supplier information, records, and documentation in accordance with defined business processes.
  • Produce and maintain procurement reports, dashboards, and management information covering purchase order activity, supplier performance metrics, delivery performance, and operational risks.
  • Monitor supplier performance data and maintain scorecards, providing visibility of supplier performance trends and supporting management review activities.
  • Respond to internal stakeholder queries relating to procurement activity, order status, deliveries, supplier engagement, and procurement data.
  • Perform governance and data quality checks across procurement and finance systems, ensuring records remain accurate, complete, and aligned with defined standards.
  • Support procurement compliance, audit, supplier onboarding, and governance activities by maintaining accurate records and evidence repositories.
  • Monitor stock levels, consumption trends, and procurement requirements, identifying potential risks and reordering requirements to support operational needs.
  • Identify opportunities to improve procurement workflows, reporting, and system processes, supporting the implementation of process enhancements and automation initiatives.
  • Take ownership of procurement data quality and operational reporting, ensuring information supports informed decision-making, compliance requirements, and business visibility.

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.
