We are partnering with a leading global consultancy to recruit into its growing IT & Technology Procurement practice.

This is a client-facing opportunity for an experienced IT procurement professional who wants to combine deep category expertise with consulting and transformation delivery. You will work with major organisations on complex commercial, sourcing and supplier initiatives, helping clients identify opportunities and then taking an active role in delivering measurable outcomes.

This is very much a hands-on consulting role. You will be expected to take ownership, lead workstreams and teams, engage senior stakeholders and apply your procurement expertise to solve complex commercial challenges.

The Role

You will work across a range of client engagements focused on IT procurement, category strategy, strategic sourcing and supplier management.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading and managing teams across global client engagements.
  • Developing and executing IT procurement and category strategies.
  • Leading complex sourcing and commercial initiatives from opportunity identification through to implementation.
  • Conducting supplier research, market analysis and commercial assessments.
  • Building robust fact bases and translating complex data into clear, actionable insights.
  • Identifying opportunities to improve value, supplier performance and commercial outcomes.
  • Tracking benefits and ensuring delivery remains aligned with agreed milestones and objectives.
  • Working closely with client stakeholders to understand requirements, challenge thinking and align priorities.
  • Leading and contributing to workshops, working sessions and senior stakeholder discussions.
  • Communicating recommendations and commercial insights clearly to both client and internal teams.
  • Supporting the development of high-performing teams and contributing to the continued growth of the wider consulting practice.

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.
