Permanent buyers, category managers and procurement leaders for businesses in Bromley, recruited for the value they add to every contract.
The strongest buyers are rarely job hunting. They are usually in the middle of a tender somewhere else.
Procurement employers across London & the South East include e-commerce and grocery fulfilment operations, parcel and last-mile carriers, airfreight forwarders and retail distribution centres. Each buys differently, so we recruit to the categories rather than the job title.
If buying talent is scarce around Bromley, we search a wider commute and look at hybrid working before we lower the bar on skill.
With the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury carrying the region's freight, buyers across London & the South East often manage haulage and carrier contracts as a major category.
Procurement roles for retail, manufacturing, 3PL and public sector supply chains.
We ask for a real negotiation, what was at stake and what the candidate gave away to win it.
Winning a contract is half the job. We look for buyers who manage suppliers well after the signature.
For a new or growing procurement function we can recruit the manager and the buyers together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Bromley run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Strategic and category roles usually pay more than transactional purchasing roles. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Categories, spend, suppliers, systems and the result the new buyer needs to deliver.
Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.
We arrange interviews and any negotiation exercise or presentation, then brief each candidate.
A buyer who remembers the last tender knows where the supplier has room to move.
Buyers who leave early often cite little influence, poor data or a business that ignores procurement. We raise all three first.
