The sourcing, contract and supplier people who keep Montrose operations supplied at the right price.
Every procurement candidate we put forward is screened on the spend they managed and the savings they evidenced.
Across Tayside & Fife, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as Glenrothes and Dunfermline industrial estates and the A90 corridor. We search for buyers who already know that supplier market.
We ask candidates what they have bought, the spend they managed and how the savings they claim were measured.
Across Tayside & Fife, buyers and category managers are hired by food and drink manufacturing, soft-fruit and agri-food distribution, life sciences and regional 3PLs.
Buying, category, sourcing and contract roles.
Winning a contract is half the job. We look for buyers who manage suppliers well after the signature.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
For a new or growing procurement function we can recruit the manager and the buyers together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Montrose run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Our pay advice comes from current offers for comparable buying roles. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.
We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.
For Montrose businesses with major contracts up for renewal, the right permanent buyer can pay for the role in one negotiation.
Procurement notice periods can be long, so the timeline is planned from the first conversation.
