About SmartBuyer – On-Demand Procurement Expertise, Zero Commitment

At SmartBuyer, we built a fractional procurement platform to bridge the knowledge gap in sourcing and negotiation. We believe every business deserves access to specialist expertise for securing the best commercial deals, and that this expertise should be fairly rewarded. That’s precisely why SmartBuyer exists—we empower you to be a smarter buyer.

Founded on Decades of Procurement Leadership

Our founders, Mark Coulson, MCIPS, and James Hammersley, MCIPS, bring over 40 years of procurement experience. Tired of the delays and paperwork associated with expensive consultancies, they created SmartBuyer to deliver expert insight swiftly, affordably, and without long-term contracts.

Fast, Efficient, No-Frills Expertise

We reject the outdated model of thirty-slide deck deliverables, lengthy turnarounds, and five-figure invoices. Instead, SmartBuyer gives you direct access to pre-vetted procurement specialists, minus the administrative burden. Our platform is built to be friction-free, giving you fast access to buying advice, a pay-as-you-go model, and full confidentiality, all designed to eliminate the learning curve.

Your Access to Market Wisdom

Whether you need targeted procurement insight, short-term project help, or simply want to browse expert profiles before committing, SmartBuyer’s platform puts knowledge at your fingertips. Our goal? To ensure you get tailored procurement advice, when you need it, without the usual hurdles.
