Our Company
Posterity Global is a specialist management consultancy and training provider dedicated to modernising procurement for the digital era. We advocate for a Procurement Renaissance, shifting organisations from transactional public spending and static cycles towards strategic investment for long-term social, economic, and environmental impact.
Our Leadership
The firm was founded in 2024 by David Kershaw MCIPS Chartered, a global procurement leader recognised for his commercial acumen, strategic foresight and pragmatic procurement skills. David’s expertise ensures that commercial activities move beyond legacy customs to unlock high-impact, long-term value. His track record includes advising UK Whitehall departments, Arm’s Length Bodies, Charities and Local Authorities, alongside delivering strategic procurement transformations for the OECD, World Bank, DIAL and UN programmes.
Warren Smith MCIPS Chartered, Director of Insight, Innovation, and Impact, brings a deep, principled perspective to public contracting. A recognised authority with over 30 years of experience, Warren was instrumental in establishing the GOV.UK Digital Marketplace during his time at the Government Digital Service (GDS). He currently co-leads a United Nations (ITU) working group to ensure procurement strategies are rooted in global best practice and intergenerational well-being.
Together, David and Warren bridge the gaps between procurement operations, commercial strategy and data-driven execution, ensuring Posterity Global’s solutions are both commercially sound and socially progressive.
