Permanent procurement and buying recruitment across Scotland.
Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.
Procurement vacancies across Scotland come from retail and grocery distribution, food, drink and whisky supply chains, energy logistics and national 3PLs. Each needs buyers who can balance price, service and risk.
Direct buying, indirect procurement, category management and contract management call for different people. The search is shaped to the role.
Businesses operating from sites such as Eurocentral, Bellshill and Newhouse along the M8 plus the Grangemouth port and refinery complex compete for experienced buyers, which keeps salaries competitive.
Permanent procurement roles, from purchasing assistants to heads of procurement.
We ask candidates how their savings were measured and signed off before we put them forward.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
For a new or growing procurement function we can recruit the manager and the buyers together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Bishopbriggs 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.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
We arrange interviews and any negotiation exercise or presentation, then brief each candidate.
We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.
An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.
We describe the spend data and systems as they really are, so nobody is surprised in month one.
