Whether you're changing careers or looking to grow in a new direction, we welcome diverse experience. As a people-centric business, we're proud to positively impact our local people and businesses.
Your New Role- Proactively generate new business through targeted cold and warm outreach to prospective clients within the Procurement sector.
- Build and maintain strong, long‑term relationships with key organisational stakeholders, including Heads of Procurement, HR Directors, CFOs, CEOs and mid‑management decision‑makers.
- Conduct in‑person meetings with hiring managers to gain a comprehensive understanding of their recruitment priorities and present appropriate hiring solutions.
- Source, assess and recruit high‑calibre candidates for a variety of Procurement and Supply Chain positions, including public sector specialists who may require development on frameworks and sector‑specific terminology.
- Meet and exceed daily targets and KPIs, contributing to the growth, profitability and strategic objectives of the Cambridge Procurement desk.
- A strong ambition to thrive in a sales‑driven environment, with proven motivation to work to targets and deliver exceptional service to clients, candidates and colleagues.
- Excellent communication skills and a high level of professional credibility when representing Hays in client and candidate interactions.
- Resilience, curiosity and commercial awareness-particularly relevant in Procurement, where conversations often involve economic factors, supply chain pressures and complex commercial decision‑making.
- A solid understanding of 360‑degree recruitment and a genuine passion for developing a long‑term career within the industry.
- Confidence, professionalism and the ability to engage effectively with senior stakeholders across a variety of sectors.
- Uncapped, performance‑based commission paid every four weeks.
- Regular incentives and rewards, including opportunities to qualify for all‑expenses‑paid international trips.
- Access to industry‑leading learning and development programmes designed to support performance, progression and long‑term career growth.
