We also work with employers in major markets, including Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Austin, Charlotte, Raleigh, San Antonio, Chicago, Fort Worth, Orlando, Tampa, Greenville and Savannah.

Contract, Contract-to-Hire and Direct Hire Supply Chain Staffing

We fill supply chain roles three ways. Contract staffing covers a project, a system implementation or a busy season. Contract-to-hire lets you see a planner or buyer on the job before making a permanent offer. Direct hire is for permanent roles where you want the right person for the long term. Not sure which fits?

Why Supply Chain Talent Is Hard to Find

Demand for supply chain skills is growing faster than the job market as a whole. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects employment of logisticians to grow 18 percent from 2025 to 2035, with about 26,600 openings a year and a median wage of $82,320 in May 2025. For purchasing managers, buyers and purchasing agents, BLS projects 6 percent growth and about 53,600 openings a year. Purchasing managers earned a median of $148,080 and buyers and purchasing agents $77,710.

Strong candidates with ERP experience, planning software skills and industry knowledge are usually already employed and not applying to job boards. A specialized supply chain recruiter reaches those passive candidates directly.
