South East

Romsey procurement recruitment

We look for buyers who know your categories: haulage, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling equipment.

Logistics operations around Romsey serve one of the UK's wealthiest consumer regions, with the Channel ports and Gatwick within the region. We recruit the buyers and category managers who keep those operations supplied.

If buying talent is scarce around Romsey, we search a wider commute and look at hybrid working before we lower the bar on skill.

The strongest procurement candidates across the South East are usually already buying for businesses such as retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.
