About Us

The Specialist Behind Every Exceptional Hire

Founded in 2005 by Andrew Daley and Simon Edbury, we are a boutique executive recruitment firm dedicated entirely to Digital Procurement and Supply Chain. We work with ProcureTech vendors, consultancies, systems integrators, and enterprise procurement functions across Europe and North America. Our founders are hands-on consultants involved in every appointment, combining decades of specialist knowledge with a deeply embedded network across the global ProcureTech ecosystem. We call this Hiring Intelligence.

Who we are

Career Specialists, Not Generalists

We are well-educated, professional, career recruiters who have spent our working lives in one market. Andrew has specialised in procurement and supply chain recruitment since 1998; Simon since 1996. That depth means we know where the talent is, how to engage it, and what 'great' actually looks like in this space. Our no-nonsense, direct approach has earned us an outstanding reputation with both clients and candidates — and our network is genuinely unique because we have built it, conversation by conversation, over more than two decades.

What we do

Hiring Intelligence in Action

We deliver better hires, faster, through four interconnected services: advisory work that diagnoses and fixes what's holding a hiring process back; access to our international specialist talent network across Europe and North America; executive and specialist search for business-critical appointments; and AI-driven market research and talent pool mapping that gives clients a real-time view of the talent landscape. Whether you're a ProcureTech start-up making your first senior sales hire or an enterprise procurement function building a digital transformation team, we bring the market insight and trusted relationships that change the outcome.

Our Purpose

One Market. All In.

Our purpose is straightforward: to make hiring exceptional talent in Digital Procurement and Supply Chain faster, smarter, and more certain. We focus on a single market — the global ProcureTech ecosystem — because depth beats breadth every time. The more embedded we are, the better the outcomes we deliver for clients and candidates alike.

Our Values

What We Stand For

Specialist expertise over generalism. Honest, direct advice over comfortable platitudes. Deep relationships over transactional volume. Partnership over CV delivery. We believe that the best recruitment happens when clients treat us as an extension of their hiring team — and we invest accordingly.

Why working with us

The Network and Knowledge Others Simply Don't Have

We reach high-impact professionals others can't because we have spent decades embedded in this specific market. We leverage relationships and expertise built through ProcureTech events, ongoing conversations, and long-term network cultivation. We know what 'great' looks like — domain knowledge plus hiring intelligence equals precision fit. The result, as one founder told us: 'You redefined what I believed was possible from a recruitment business.'
