A permanent buyer should leave the supplier base stronger than they found it.

Procurement vacancies across the East Midlands come from national distribution centres, airfreight and express operators, e-commerce fulfilment and contract logistics. Each needs buyers who can balance price, service and risk.

Many procurement roles blend office, site and remote days. Settling the pattern before the search saves time for everyone.

Procurement roles across the East Midlands buy for operations at sites such as Magna Park, DIRFT and the East Midlands Gateway beside East Midlands Airport.
