From purchasing assistants to heads of procurement, we find permanent buyers in Oakham who negotiate well and manage suppliers better.
We look for buyers who know your categories: haulage, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling equipment.
Logistics around Oakham is anchored by the Golden Triangle's national distribution centres and the air-freight hub at East Midlands Airport. We recruit the buyers and category managers who keep those operations supplied.
We ask candidates what they have bought, the spend they managed and how the savings they claim were measured.
Procurement roles across the East Midlands buy for operations at sites such as the M1 and A14 corridors and the East Midlands Airport freight hub.
Permanent procurement roles, from purchasing assistants to heads of procurement.
Freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling: we match buyers to the categories you buy.
We ask for a real negotiation, what was at stake and what the candidate gave away to win it.
We stay in contact while the new buyer meets the suppliers and takes over the contracts.
Indicative permanent salaries in Oakham run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
The package matters as much as the salary: bonus, flexibility and how much the business values procurement. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Categories, spend, suppliers, systems and the result the new buyer needs to deliver.
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.
For Oakham 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.
