A procurement recruitment desk for Lanark

Every procurement candidate we put forward is screened on the spend they managed and the savings they evidenced.

Procurement vacancies across Scotland come from grocery and retail DCs, food and drink supply chains, energy and port logistics and national 3PLs. Each needs buyers who can balance price, service and risk.

Renewing a major freight or warehousing contract soon? A buyer who has run that tender before is worth finding early.

Procurement roles across Scotland buy for operations at sites such as Eurocentral, Bellshill and Newhouse along the M8 plus the Grangemouth port and refinery complex.
