Procurement Executive Search & Headhunting Specialists

Let our team search, identify, and recruit top Procurement talent for your organisation.


Importance of The Procurement Executive Role

As a key business partner to other senior management, the Procurement executive is firmly at the heart of business strategy and must be able to identify opportunities and establish strategic partnerships, both within and outside of their organisation.

Procurement leaders excel at developing innovative supplier strategies that reduce costs, enhance market speed, and maintain a competitive advantage in order to promote the growth and overall efficiency of an organisation’s supply chain. This necessitates a diverse set of skills and a broad range of experience which require the ability to analyse and optimise supply chains and networks within the context of their complexity, time-sensitive, and global nature for maximum profitability.

At Novo, our team of experienced consultants have a wealth of industry experience and a deep understanding of the challenges companies face in recruiting top talent with the right expertise and skills. Our vast network of contacts and global reach enables us to assist clients in identifying and appointing top-tier procurement talent to drive results and build sustainable value.

Procurement Skills Needed Include:

  •  Strategic thinking to develop and implement procurement strategies that align with the overall goals of the organisation.
  • Communication and leadership ability to lead and manage teams, maintain positive supplier relationships, and effectively communicate with stakeholders.
  • Negotiation skills to secure the best possible terms and conditions with suppliers.
  • Risk management ability to identify and manage procurement-associated risks.
  • Understanding of procurement technology to automate and streamline processes.
    Industry-specific knowledge and an understanding of the global market.

At Novo, our executive search consultants focus on helping clients achieve positive change, growth, and competitive advantage through the identification, assessment, and recruitment of the most talented procurement leaders.
