From purchasing assistants to heads of procurement, we find permanent buyers in Malmesbury who negotiate well and manage suppliers better.

South West

Malmesbury procurement recruitment

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

Logistics around Malmesbury is anchored by the Bristol ports and the M5 spine that serves Devon, Cornwall and Somerset. Across the South West, procurement teams buy for operations at sites such as Avonmouth and Severnside, the M5 corridor and the Western Approach parks.

Procurement offers compete with retailers, manufacturers and the public sector. We help pitch salary, bonus and flexibility so the first offer is accepted.

Across the South West, buyers and category managers are hired by port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs.
