I have used recruiters in the past to assist with different roles, but the calibre of people was not at the level we needed. With Portfolio, where they have a specialist team only dealing with payroll specialists, it was the best option for us

Other recruitment companies were not listening to our requirements. We were being passed CV's that did not match the brief. However, the consultant we worked with at Portfolio Group listened, and then used their expertise to give us candidates that aligned with the skills and personality we were looking for.

I was impressed by how quickly and efficiently the process worked. We had a call on Wednesday, I had 6-7 CV’s to select by Friday, and I was interviewing and had made the decision by the following Wednesday. That speed was so essential for this role, given how critical it was.

Frequently asked questions
Why should I choose you as a Procurement and Supply Chain recruitment partner?
Unlike most procurement recruitment agencies in the UK, our procurement and supply chain recruiters don’t rely on generic databases or one-size-fits-all approaches. Every search is shaped by insight, precision, and clear understanding of what a successful candidate looks like for your organisation.
That way, every candidate we present to you will not only match the requirements for your role, but they’ll be perfectly aligned with your organisation’s goals, culture, and long-term vision. To achieve this, we focus on several key areas that define our approach:
- Specialist expertise: Our recruiters work exclusively within the sector
- Bespoke recruitment solutions: Every search is tailored to your structure and objectives
- Speed and precision: With access to a wide network of pre-vetted professionals, we’re able to present high-quality candidates quickly
- Market insight: We use real-time salary benchmarking and hiring trend data to help clients make informed decisions
- Partnership-driven service: Our goal is to build lasting relationships that help achieve tangible results
What makes your agency different from other procurement recruitment agencies?
At our procurement agency, we stand out through a combination of focus, expertise, and a genuine commitment to delivering measurable results.
Unlike generalist recruiters, our consultants work exclusively within procurement and supply chain. This allows us to understand the complexities of each role, the dynamics of the market, and the kind of professionals who can drive commercial success for your business.
Our goal is to connect you with procurement professionals who not only meet the technical requirements but also bring the strategic insight, leadership, and cultural fit needed to make a lasting impact.
Do you offer executive search for senior procurement positions?
Yes, we do. If you are recruiting for a senior or business-critical procurement position, we can help you find the right individual through our dedicated and highly-targeted approach. This service is designed for roles where confidentiality, precision, and strategic alignment are essential.
Our executive search process always begins with gaining a detailed understanding of your organisation’s goals, structure, and culture, before conducting comprehensive market mapping and discreet outreach to both active and passive candidates.
Before a candidate is presented to you, they will be rigorously screened, assessed, benchmarked, and presented with a clear overview of the opportunity. That way, we can ensure a mutual fit from the outset.
Do you support temporary and interim placements?
Yes, we do. Whether you require a permanent procurement professional or temporary support — such as an implementing a project, assistance during peak periods, or an interim specialist while you hire for a long-term position — we offer flexible recruitment solutions to meet your specific business needs.
How do you screen and assess candidates?
Within our procurement and supply chain recruitment division, every candidate goes through a structured and fully transparent screening process before they are presented to a client. That way, we can ensure every professional we recommend is fully qualified, motivated, and aligned with your business objectives from day one.
Our screening and assessment process starts with a detailed review of the candidate’s career history and achievements. Then, the candidate will undergo a series of interviews that will explore their technical capabilities, soft skills, and cultural fit.
For senior or specialist roles, we can also include additional steps such as skills assessments, scenario-based interviews, or psychometric testing – depending on your business needs.
What is your average time-to-fill for a procurement role?
Time-to-fill can vary depending on the role and urgency. However, we typically present qualified candidates within 2-3 working days. Our goal is always to deliver highly relevant candidates as efficiently as possible.
What sectors do you recruit for?
Our procurement recruitment specialists have successfully placed candidates across a broad range of industries, including:
- Manufacturing and Engineering
- Construction and Infrastructure
- Healthcare and Pharmaceuticals
- Public Sector and Government
- Retail and E-commerce
- Transport and Logistics
- Hospitality and Leisure
We understand the nuances and demands of procurement across different sectors, ensuring we find the right fit for your organisation.

Can you integrate with our existing HR or recruitment systems?
Yes, we can. When you work with us, our goal is to make collaboration as seamless as possible by aligning our processes with your existing HR or recruitment systems.
Whether you’re using an internal applicant tracking system, onboarding platform, or other talent management tools, we can adapt our workflow to fit smoothly into your existing setup.
That way, we can help maintain consistency across your current processes, reduce duplication, and ensure accurate reporting every step of the way.

Do you recruit roles outside of procurement and supply chain?
Yes, we do. While procurement and supply chain recruitment are key areas of our expertise, our work also extends across several related business functions.
We regularly recruit for roles in Payroll, HR, Reward, Credit Control, and other operational areas that play a vital part in keeping organisations running smoothly. This broader scope allows us to support our clients with a joined-up approach to recruitment, ensuring consistency and quality across multiple departments.
