Procurement recruitment for Oswestry employers buying freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel and packaging, where every renewal counts.
Good procurement protects margin quietly, one contract at a time. That is what we recruit for.
Procurement vacancies across the West Midlands come from automotive and component supply chains, national retail DCs, contract logistics providers and rail-linked operators. 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.
With the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections carrying the region's freight, buyers across the West Midlands often manage haulage and carrier contracts as a major category.
Permanent procurement roles matched to categories, spend and seniority.
Where the role asks for a professional procurement qualification such as CIPS, we confirm it before the shortlist.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
We stay in contact while the new buyer meets the suppliers and takes over the contracts.
Indicative permanent salaries in Oswestry 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.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
A small number of candidates, each with notes on categories, spend and results.
An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.
Buyers who leave early often cite little influence, poor data or a business that ignores procurement. We raise all three first.
