Procurement Recruitment in Launceston

Permanent buyers, category managers and procurement leaders for businesses in Launceston, recruited for the value they add to every contract.

Devon & Cornwall

Procurement talent for Launceston

Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.

Across Devon & Cornwall, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as Plymouth's port and the Devonport and Langage industrial estates. We search for buyers who already know that supplier market.

A buyer who leaves mid-tender takes the negotiation history and the supplier relationships with them.

The strongest procurement candidates across Devon & Cornwall are usually already buying for businesses such as chilled and ambient food distribution, marine services, aggregates and china clay logistics and independent hauliers.
