The sourcing, contract and supplier people who keep Crail operations supplied at the right price.
The strongest buyers are rarely job hunting. They are usually in the middle of a tender somewhere else.
Across Tayside & Fife, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as the Port of Dundee and the Dundee and Perth industrial estates. We search for buyers who already know that supplier market.
We ask candidates what they have bought, the spend they managed and how the savings they claim were measured.
Procurement demand across Tayside & Fife follows food and drink manufacturing, soft-fruit and agri-food distribution, life sciences and regional 3PLs.
From junior buyers to procurement directors.
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.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
Indicative permanent salaries in Crail run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
An offer pitched at the market is accepted faster. Ask us for a current read on procurement pay before the role is advertised. 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.
Buyers grow into category managers and category managers into heads of procurement. Hiring well now builds that path.
We ask candidates what made them leave their last procurement role. It tells us whether yours will keep them.
