Procurement Systems Analyst

Procurement Systems Analyst required for a major UK organisation, offering Hybrid Working, paying up to £52,000 + Bonus + Excellent Benefits

Working Pattern:

  • 3 days onsite, 2 days from home
  • The role can be based from Manchester, the East Midlands or Stansted

We're looking for an experienced Procurement Systems Analyst with strong SAP Ariba Upstream experience to join a well-established Procurement Systems team supporting a large, complex organisation, with large on-going transformations - this is a role that will always keep you engaged / busy.

Role Overview:

As Procurement Systems Analyst, you'll be a subject matter expert for the organisation's SAP Ariba Upstream environment. You'll ensure the Procurement function gets the very best from the platform whilst supporting continuous improvement across sourcing, contracts, and supplier management.

  • Join a small, collaborative team where your expertise will genuinely make a difference from day one.
  • Act as the go-to person for SAP Ariba Upstream, supporting the Procurement team across sourcing, contracts, supplier lifecycle, and performance, as well as the wider tendering and purchasing process.
  • Configure the platform, create templates, forms, and workflows, support new users, troubleshoot issues, and continually improve how the system supports the business.
  • Work between Procurement and Technology, taking business requirements from Procurement, translating them into technical solutions, and explaining technical concepts in a way that non-technical stakeholders can understand.

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.
