Procurement recruitment for Consett employers buying freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel and packaging, where every renewal counts.
Every procurement candidate we put forward is screened on the spend they managed and the savings they evidenced.
Consett sits in the North East, where Teesport, the Port of Tyne and the region's automotive supply chain shape a distinctive logistics labour market. Across the North East, procurement teams buy for operations at sites such as the A1(M) and A19 corridor estates.
We ask candidates what they have bought, the spend they managed and how the savings they claim were measured.
The strongest procurement candidates across the North East are usually already buying for businesses such as automotive and component logistics, port and bulk operators, offshore and renewables supply chains and regional carriers.
Permanent procurement roles matched to categories, spend and seniority.
We check salary, bonus and hybrid terms against current procurement offers before the role goes out.
Where the role asks for a professional procurement qualification such as CIPS, we confirm it before the shortlist.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
Indicative permanent salaries in Consett run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Procurement pay in the North East moves with seniority, spend and scope: category managers and heads of procurement earn well above buyers. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
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.
An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.
If a procurement role is hard to fill, we find out whether pay, scope or reporting line is the cause and tell you plainly.
