Permanent procurement and buying recruitment across North Wales.
A permanent buyer should leave the supplier base stronger than they found it.
Across North Wales, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as the Wrexham Industrial Estate and the A483 corridor. We search for buyers who already know that supplier market.
Renewing a major freight or warehousing contract soon? A buyer who has run that tender before is worth finding early.
Across North Wales, buyers and category managers are hired by advanced manufacturing and aerospace, Irish Sea ferry and groupage operators, food processing and regional 3PLs.
Buying, category, sourcing and contract roles.
We check salary, bonus and hybrid terms against current procurement offers before the role goes out.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
For a new or growing procurement function we can recruit the manager and the buyers together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Flint run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Strategic and category roles usually pay more than transactional purchasing roles. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
A small number of candidates, each with notes on categories, spend and results.
We arrange interviews and any negotiation exercise or presentation, then brief each candidate.
Interim buyers are useful for a single project. Ongoing categories need someone who will still be there at the next renewal.
Procurement notice periods can be long, so the timeline is planned from the first conversation.
