Our insight into these domains ensures that we connect organisations with leaders whose expertise aligns closely with both immediate priorities and long-term objectives.

Functional Focus

As a global procurement recruitment firm, we focus on senior-level hiring. The leaders we place are not only category experts but also strategists and change agents who influence business direction at the highest level.

We support appointments at leadership and executive level, including roles such as:

• Chief Procurement Officer (CPO)
• Global & Regional Procurement Directors
• Vice President of Procurement
• Head of Direct or Indirect Procurement
• Director of Strategic Sourcing
• Head of Category Management
• Procurement Transformation Leads
• Sustainable Procurement Executives
• Procurement Technology & Digital Leaders

These roles demand a balance of technical depth, leadership capability and commercial vision. As a specialist procurement recruitment firm, we are skilled at assessing all three.

In a competitive and complex procurement market, securing the right leadership talent can be difficult. As an experienced procurement recruitment firm, Proco Group helps clients overcome common barriers:

• Reaching Hidden Talent We engage with senior procurement leaders who are not active on the job market – giving clients access to individuals unavailable through traditional channels.
• Measuring Leadership Impact We evaluate a candidate’s ability to deliver change, influence stakeholders and lead strategic initiatives – not just their technical skills.

• Transferability Across Sectors We assess whether expertise in one industry or category will translate successfully into a new market or operating model – reducing risk and accelerating performance.
• Cultural & Organisational Fit We ensure that shortlisted candidates align with your company values and leadership style – a critical factor in long-term success.
• Timely Market Insight Through constant dialogue with senior procurement professionals, we provide real-time intelligence on talent availability, salary expectations and market movements – helping clients hire ahead of competitors.
