Working in the ever-evolving procurement world you’ve got to get comfortable with change. At Zero9, innovation is in our DNA. We are diversifying the industry by empowering tomorrow’s leaders.
Strategic hires
From headhunting and sourcing to inducting and long-term placement, we understand that hiring experienced procurement talent demands a deep understanding of the industry landscape and an appreciation for the nuances of every role.
We work with clients to gain a deep insight into their strategic goals and talent needs. We then leverage our impressive network built over almost 20 years to source top-tier candidates. It is this people-focused approach that drives procurement functions forward.
Project teams
We understand the urgency and complexity of project delivery needs, especially when it comes to divestment, procurement transformation, and cost-out programmes. It is this insight that allows us to build specialist, cohesive teams with the exact skills needed to tackle procurement projects head-on.
We handpick teams for their agility in adapting to challenges and achieving exceptional results. Whether you need a quick turnaround on a divestment project or a comprehensive transformation program, we’re ready to assemble your team.
Consulting and advisory
We act as problem solvers, coaching clients and candidates to define goals and design a framework to achieve them. Our “Friday Surgery” sessions provide confidential and complimentary advice across the procurement space, guiding clients towards the most effective approach for their hiring needs and empowering candidates to pursue or advance careers in procurement.
From understanding challenges and identifying obstacles to offering alternative solutions, our expert insight ensures we find a better way to talent sourcing.
What we do
Having earnt our stripes, honed our skills, and built market-leading teams with the recruitment big hitters, we harnessed the lessons learned and long-lasting connections forged to create Zero9 – a consultancy with an approach to recruitment that is anything but standard.
Zero9’s consultants are experts in sourcing experienced, quality procurement talent across permanent and interim roles to support established functions, green field sites, divestment projects and procurement transformation projects.
Every hiring project is tailored, agile, and meticulously designed to deliver quality at unparalleled speed. But what truly sets us apart is our ability to bring an organisation’s story to life and ignite excitement within the market.
