Procurement recruitment for Cheadle employers buying freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel and packaging, where every renewal counts.
A permanent buyer should leave the supplier base stronger than they found it.
Across the North West, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as Trafford Park — one of Europe's largest industrial estates — Omega Warrington and the Port of Liverpool. We search for buyers who already know that supplier market.
A buyer who leaves mid-tender takes the negotiation history and the supplier relationships with them.
The strongest procurement candidates across the North West are usually already buying for businesses such as grocery and retail distribution, 3PLs, port and container logistics and air and sea forwarders.
Permanent procurement roles matched to categories, spend and seniority.
We ask candidates how their savings were measured and signed off before we put them forward.
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 Cheadle 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.
A small number of candidates, each with notes on categories, spend and results.
We help agree the package and manage the notice period through to the start date.
A permanent buyer learns your suppliers, your contracts and your history of price rises. That knowledge compounds at every renewal.
We describe the spend data and systems as they really are, so nobody is surprised in month one.
