From Senior Procurement Manager to Director-Ready in 100 Days

You already know you're capable of director-level work.
But somehow, the promotion still hasn't happened.

A 100-day sprint designed to help senior procurement managers become director-ready and create real momentum toward procurement director roles.

  • Conversations every day
  • Interviews every week
  • Director-ready in 100 days

Only 10 founding spots available. Applications close 30 June 2026.

You've Outgrown the Role

You've spent years delivering results. Taking ownership. Solving hard problems. Keeping things moving when others struggle.

You already operate at a higher level than your title suggests.

But somehow, the promotion still hasn't happened.

Peers. Sometimes even juniors. Move ahead.

Not because they work harder.

Because they're seen differently.

Sound Familiar?

Watching peers, and even juniors, get promoted while you stay stuck.

Doing Director-level work without Director-level recognition.

Wondering if internal growth is even possible

The External Market Has Changed

If you haven’t interviewed in years, the entire hiring game has changed while you were busy delivering results.

ATS Filters

Strong candidates filtered out before recruiters see them

LinkedIn Visibility

Recruiter searchability now determines who gets noticed

Executive Presence

Operational resumes undersell strategic leadership value

Strategic Networking

Cold applications rarely lead to director-level interviews


The Problem Isn't Effort.

Most senior procurement managers don't need to work harder.

They need a system that helps them think, position, communicate, and operate like director candidates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this sprint for?

Senior procurement managers inside multinational companies who feel ready for director-level work, but are not yet being seen, positioned, or interviewed like director candidates.



What if I haven't interviewed in years?

That's exactly why this exists. We rebuild your positioning, resume, LinkedIn presence, recruiter outreach, and interview confidence step by step.



Is this for internal promotion or external roles?

This sprint is designed specifically for senior procurement managers to start landing external director-level interviews consistently.



What if I'm already very experienced?

Good. This is not basic career advice. The work is about turning your experience into clear director-level positioning that hiring leaders recognize quickly.



What if I don't have time?

You'll need consistent execution, not hours every day. Plan for 30 to 60 minutes a day during the sprint.

What if I'm not active on LinkedIn?

That's part of the work. We'll build a practical visibility rhythm that fits a senior corporate professional, not influencer-style posting.



What if I don't get 10 interviews in 100 days?

If you do the work and don't land 10 procurement director interviews in 100 days, I keep working with you for free until you do.



What if I start Take Off 25 and don't see the value?

Complete the first 25 days. If you don't believe the sprint can help you become director-ready, request a full refund.



Is this one-to-one or group coaching?

The Founding 10 sprint includes direct support and personalized feedback while we build the first case studies.



What happens after I apply?

I personally review your application. If it looks like a strong fit, you'll receive the next steps to begin Take Off 25.
