With the uncertainty surrounding Brexit and what that will mean to the profession, it is difficult to predict the future for procurement and supply. However, as a professional body, we need to explore possible outcomes in order to identify opportunities for procurement and supply, and its next generation of professionals. With the economic and political changes we have seen in recent months never before has it been more important to have trained professionals in procurement.

So how do you attract and retain the best?

To promote the profession and inspire the best talent to choose procurement and supply chain management as a career, CIPS and Hays Recruitment have carried out for the fourth year an in-depth survey. This benchmarks salaries, bonuses and benefits for different roles in different regions and sectors, and highlights the perceived value of the profession up to Board level, and to understand the career aspirations of professionals.

The results make a fascinating read and indeed there is no other publication that explores in depth, the appreciated value of procurement and supply chain management.

Join the webinar to hear from Scott Dance, Director, Hays Procurement & Supply Chain who will present the survey findings for the UK.
