The sourcing, contract and supplier people who keep Enfield operations supplied at the right price.
A permanent buyer should leave the supplier base stronger than they found it.
As part of Greater London, Enfield draws on one of the country's deepest — and most fought-over — pools of logistics and supply chain talent. We recruit the buyers and category managers who keep those operations supplied.
Direct buying, indirect procurement, category management and contract management call for different people. The search is shaped to the role.
Across London & the South East, buyers and category managers are hired by e-commerce and grocery fulfilment operations, parcel and last-mile carriers, airfreight forwarders and retail distribution centres.
Buying, category, sourcing and contract roles.
Freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling: we match buyers to the categories you buy.
Where the role asks for a professional procurement qualification such as CIPS, we confirm it before the shortlist.
We stay in contact while the new buyer meets the suppliers and takes over the contracts.
Indicative permanent salaries in Enfield 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.
Categories, spend, suppliers, systems and the result the new buyer needs to deliver.
Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.
We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.
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.
