From purchasing assistants to heads of procurement, we find permanent buyers in Ashington who negotiate well and manage suppliers better.
Good procurement protects margin quietly, one contract at a time. That is what we recruit for.
Logistics around Ashington is driven by the A19 corridor, the region's deep-water ports and a strong automotive and process-industry base. We recruit the buyers and category managers who keep those operations supplied.
Renewing a major freight or warehousing contract soon? A buyer who has run that tender before is worth finding early.
Procurement roles across the North East buy for operations at sites such as the Port of Tyne and the Nissan and Washington supply-chain parks.
From junior buyers to procurement directors.
We ask candidates how their savings were measured and signed off before we put them forward.
Freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling: we match buyers to the categories you buy.
We check salary, bonus and hybrid terms against current procurement offers before the role goes out.
Indicative permanent salaries in Ashington run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Our pay advice comes from current offers for comparable buying roles. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Categories, spend, suppliers, systems and the result the new buyer needs to deliver.
Spend, savings, negotiations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We help agree the package and manage the notice period through to the start date.
An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.
Strong buyers value a seat in commercial decisions, good spend data and a manager who backs their negotiations.
