Permanent procurement and buying recruitment across Tayside & Fife.
Good procurement protects margin quietly, one contract at a time. That is what we recruit for.
Operations at sites such as the Port of Dundee and the Dundee and Perth industrial estates depend on suppliers that deliver. We match buyers to the categories that keep them running.
Direct buying, indirect procurement, category management and contract management call for different people. The search is shaped to the role.
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.
We ask for a real negotiation, what was at stake and what the candidate gave away to win it.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
Indicative permanent salaries in Dundee run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
If the offer looks light against the procurement market, we say so before interviews are arranged. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.
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.
Procurement notice periods can be long, so the timeline is planned from the first conversation.
