Procurement recruitment for Peterhead employers buying freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel and packaging, where every renewal counts.
A buyer who can negotiate but not manage suppliers wins the contract and loses the relationship. We test for both.
Operations across North East Scotland rely on the A90 and A96, Aberdeen harbour and Aberdeen International Airport. Buyers who understand those routes negotiate freight and warehousing contracts from a stronger position.
If buying talent is scarce around Peterhead, we search a wider commute and look at hybrid working before we lower the bar on skill.
The strongest procurement candidates across North East Scotland are usually already buying for businesses such as energy supply-chain operators, seafood and agri-food distribution, chilled logistics and North Sea support services.
The people who source, negotiate and manage the contracts.
Freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling: we match buyers to the categories you buy.
We check salary, bonus and hybrid terms against current procurement offers before the role goes out.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
Indicative permanent salaries in Peterhead run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
Procurement pay in Scotland moves with seniority, spend and scope: category managers and heads of procurement earn well above buyers. 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 Peterhead businesses with major contracts up for renewal, the right permanent buyer can pay for the role in one negotiation.
Buyers who leave early often cite little influence, poor data or a business that ignores procurement. We raise all three first.
