·The Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply (CIPS) qualification is increasingly recognised by South African employers in both public and private sectors.

·Bid committee experience - serving on a bid specification, evaluation, or adjudication committee - is a significant differentiator for senior SCM roles.
