Our Candidate Sourcing Process

What separates Jigsaw from other recruitment firms is our proactive talent management approach. Other agencies operate on a traditional recruitment model that is tactical in execution, meaning the client brief is reactively taken to the open market in the hope of finding the perfect candidate. The chance of success through this method is low and the process lengthy.

At Jigsaw, we don’t leave thing to chance. Since 2006, the focus of every Talent Manager is to continuously identify strong procurement and supply chain talent, bringing them into our network irrespective of whether they are actively seeking a new role. This allows us to effectively talent pool for future roles. Using this process, we have an ever-growing network of over 15,000 highly skilled procurement and supply chain professionals, from entry to executive level.

Once we are engaged by a client and have received the brief, we simply take the opportunity to our vetted network which has been expertly categorised by skill, position, industry, capability, salary, location and job search status. This removes the need to advertise or conduct a reactive search process, allowing us to deliver high quality talent - consistently and efficiently - for our clients.

Arguably the most important element of the talent acquisition process is vetting. This is especially important in procurement and supply chain as the functions are complex; a wide range of skills make up the broader discipline, many of which are nuanced and dependent on maturity of the function or industry the candidate has operated in.

Our Vetting

This is where Jigsaw stands out.

Our network of over 15,000 procurement and supply chain professionals are evaluated through a comprehensive process. Starting with a detailed interview by one of our specialist Talent Managers and followed by a technical case study assessment.
