East Midlands

Hinckley procurement recruitment

A permanent buyer should leave the supplier base stronger than they found it.

Logistics around Hinckley is anchored by the Golden Triangle's national distribution centres and the air-freight hub at East Midlands Airport. We recruit the buyers and category managers who keep those operations supplied.

We ask candidates what they have bought, the spend they managed and how the savings they claim were measured.

Procurement roles across the East Midlands buy for operations at sites such as the Golden Triangle parks at DIRFT, Magna Park and Hams Hall.

How it works

Three stages to a hire

The brief

Categories, spend, suppliers, systems and the result the new buyer needs to deliver.

Direct approach

Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.

Commercial screen

Spend, savings, negotiations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.

Your brief

Details that sharpen the search

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.

A strong procurement brief covers:

  • The main suppliers and contract renewal dates
  • Office, site and hybrid working pattern
  • Salary, bonus and benefits
  • Your interview process and any presentation
