From purchasing assistants to heads of procurement, we find permanent buyers in Calne who negotiate well and manage suppliers better.
Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.
Operations at sites such as Avonmouth, Severnside and the M5 corridor running down to the West Country depend on suppliers that deliver. We match buyers to the categories that keep them running.
If buying talent is scarce around Calne, we search a wider commute and look at hybrid working before we lower the bar on skill.
Procurement demand across the South West follows port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs.
Buying, category, sourcing and contract roles.
We ask candidates how their savings were measured and signed off before we put them forward.
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.
Indicative permanent salaries in Calne run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Procurement pay in the South West moves with seniority, spend and scope: category managers and heads of procurement earn well above buyers. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Spend, savings, negotiations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews and any negotiation exercise or presentation, then brief each candidate.
We help agree the package and manage the notice period through to the start date.
Supplier relationships improve with continuity. Changing buyers often resets them.
Strong buyers value a seat in commercial decisions, good spend data and a manager who backs their negotiations.
