In this episode of the Procurement Software Podcast, we welcome back Andrew Daly, a partner at specialist recruitment firm Edbury Daley. Andrew previously joined us on Episode 11 back in May to discuss digital skills. Today, we delve into how procurement professionals can transition into careers in procurement technology. Many procurement pros feel burnt out. So, let's explore how you can leverage your skills in a less stressful, and probably more rewarding role within the procurement tech space. Andrew emphasises the importance of educating oneself about digital tools and becoming a "super user" to stand out to potential employers. He also highlights the value of transferable skills such as relationship management, commercial acumen, and an entrepreneurial mindset. We discuss the types of roles that might suit different personality traits, from customer success and sales to product management and implementation. Andrew notes that while younger professionals in their late 20s to early 30s might find it easier to make this transition, mindset and adaptability are crucial at any age. We also touch on the potential risks and rewards of joining a startup versus a more established company. Andrew advises doing thorough due diligence on any prospective employer, especially in terms of leadership credibility and company culture.
