Permanent buyers, category managers and procurement leaders for businesses in Fordingbridge, recruited for the value they add to every contract.
Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.
Fordingbridge draws on the South East's deep logistics labour market, strung along the motorway corridors that feed London and the coast. Across the South East, procurement teams buy for operations at sites such as the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow.
Procurement offers compete with retailers, manufacturers and the public sector. We help pitch salary, bonus and flexibility so the first offer is accepted.
With the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover carrying the region's freight, buyers across the South East often manage haulage and carrier contracts as a major category.
Procurement roles for retail, manufacturing, 3PL and public sector supply chains.
Freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling: we match buyers to the categories you buy.
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 Fordingbridge run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
The package matters as much as the salary: bonus, flexibility and how much the business values procurement. 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.
Supplier relationships improve with continuity. Changing buyers often resets them.
If a procurement role is hard to fill, we find out whether pay, scope or reporting line is the cause and tell you plainly.
