Buyers who cut cost without cutting service, for businesses across Tayside & Fife and their supply chains.
Every procurement candidate we put forward is screened on the spend they managed and the savings they evidenced.
Procurement employers across Tayside & Fife include port and coastal logistics, food processing, retail distribution and manufacturing supply chains. Each buys differently, so we recruit to the categories rather than the job title.
Many procurement roles blend office, site and remote days. Settling the pattern before the search saves time for everyone.
With the A90, M90 and A9, the Port of Dundee and Rosyth carrying the region's freight, buyers across Tayside & Fife often manage haulage and carrier contracts as a major category.
The people who source, negotiate and manage the contracts.
We ask for a real negotiation, what was at stake and what the candidate gave away to win it.
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 Forfar 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.
An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.
Buyers who leave early often cite little influence, poor data or a business that ignores procurement. We raise all three first.
