ABOUT GROUP CPO:
Procurement Recruitment led by a Procurement Practitioner
"Unlocking procurement potential , from specialist to CPO"
We challenge the status quo of procurement recruitment. Led by a procurement practitioner with 20+ years of experience, our pre-vetted networks connect organisations with proven talent faster, so both clients and candidates succeed
ABOUT US
Our Story
Group CPO was founded by Nita Arora-Parkes, a procurement leader with more than 20 years of hands on practitioner experience. Having built and led procurement teams herself, Nita saw first hand how hard it is to find the right procurement talent, and how rarely traditional recruiters understood the function.
So we re-imagined the process. Group CPO specialises in procurement leadership and talent search at every level, from Chief Procurement Officers to specialist roles. Every candidate is pre-vetted by a procurement leader.
Our Mission
To shape the future of procurement, one leader at a time, by connecting organisations with exceptional procurement talent quickly, confidently and at a fraction of the time, cost and effort of a traditional search.
A Unique Perspective
Procurement is a strategic driver of business value, not a support function. Because we’ve worked in it, we understand the nuances and complexities of the role, what good looks like at every level and what it takes to succeed in your organisation’s culture.
The GROUPCPO Advantage
