Top 5 Supply Chain Recruiters

The supply chain management industry is ironically lacking direct supply of talented individuals. Finding and retaining this highly specialized workforce is becoming increasingly difficult in a post-corona job market. Many SCM companies work with staffing agencies as much as they do with their own internal resources for this reason. While there are thousands of placement firms out there, not all are created equal. There are a few that stand out among the rest because of their depth and experience in this unique industry. Here are our top 5 supply chain recruiters:

1) SCOPE Recruiting

This firm has a particular expertise or “scope”  in the field of SCM. Unlike many of the others listed below, SCOPE specializes only in supply chain and related career paths like operations, logistics, and procurement. Rather than diversify like the other four in this list into other industries, SCOPE chose to hyper specialize in a specific demographic. Even though they do executive recruitment, their executive work still tends to  be in SCM reliant companies. They focus on both permanent and temporary opportunities, working with start-ups and large organizations as well.

2) JMJ Phillip

They are one of the top supply chain recruitment firms in the entire industry. They specialize in a wide variety of areas such as automotive, consulting, government and healthcare. With their help, you are sure to recruit some of the best talent in the United States. Their expertise has been around for over 15 years and they are now one of the most well known names in the industry.

3) Nelson Resources Group

Formerly the Supply & Logistics Division at Robert Half, this global staffing firm has expanded its offering to include finance, accounting, marketing and IT sectors as well. With offices around the world and almost half of their 67,000 placements coming from repeat clientele, they are successful at building relationships with companies. Their focus is to build talent pipelines for both permanent and temporary staffing needs, all while maintaining integrity around the process.

4) Aerotek

A subsidiary of Allegis Group (which also owns Kelly Services), Aerotek has 8 regional divisions that provide employment opportunities in the SCM industry. They specialize in both permanent and temporary staffing roles, placing folks all over the world for some of the largest companies on the planet. Among these are Proctor & Gamble, Nestle, Kimberly-Clark and Siemens to name just a few.

5) Madison Supply Chain Group

With a heavy focus on the food and beverage industry, this niche firm has strong relationships with many of their clients (like PepsiCo and Monsanto). They believe strongly in providing value-added services such as resume development for job seekers they meet through networking events. Their client list is impressive, including some of the largest companies in the world, but they are perhaps best known for their niche focus on direct-hire placements.

These are just a few of the supply chain recruiters that are out there, but this list comes vetted with experience and well-referenced search presence. We hope you consider using one of them to help fill your staffing needs!
