At Barkers, put simply, we have the most talented team professionally qualified to the highest level.  We consistently lead the development of standards in the institutions that we support e.g. Our Director Marc is Chairman of CIPS Global Congress and David is a member of the Trustee Board. 

At Barkers our team are Chartered MCIPS, FCIPS or equivalently qualified with relevant Honours Degrees, MBAs and PhDs based on research completed in areas relevant to the advancement of procurement and commercial best practice. 

All our senior delivery resources come from a background of industry leadership with hands on experience of leading and developing large international procurement and commercial teams.  Our advice is based on years of hard-earned practical experience versus management theory and unrealistic timescales.

All of our clients provide testimonials and are happy to take reference calls to share their experience of working with Barkers.  We pride ourselves on delivering lasting improvements and tangible results and our client case studies validate the facts.

“Warren and his colleagues at Barkers are trusted to always do the right thing…I cannot recommend them highly enough and they would be my business consultants of choice every time.”
