The sourcing, contract and supplier people who keep Kingsbridge operations supplied at the right price.
We look for buyers who know your categories: haulage, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling equipment.
Across Devon & Cornwall, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as the A30 and A38 trunk corridors and the Exeter distribution parks. 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.
Procurement demand across Devon & Cornwall follows food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers.
From junior buyers to procurement directors.
We ask candidates how their savings were measured and signed off before we put them forward.
We check salary, bonus and hybrid terms against current procurement offers before the role goes out.
Where the role asks for a professional procurement qualification such as CIPS, we confirm it before the shortlist.
Indicative permanent salaries in Kingsbridge 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.
Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.
A small number of candidates, each with notes on categories, spend and results.
We help agree the package and manage the notice period through to the start date.
An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.
We describe the spend data and systems as they really are, so nobody is surprised in month one.
