Hiring procurement people for good in Salisbury

Good procurement protects margin quietly, one contract at a time. That is what we recruit for.

Operations at sites such as the M4 and M5 junction parks around Bristol and Gloucester depend on suppliers that deliver. We match buyers to the categories that keep them running.

We ask candidates what they have bought, the spend they managed and how the savings they claim were measured.

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

Procurement teams built

For a new or growing procurement function we can recruit the manager and the buyers together.

After the start date

We stay in contact while the new buyer meets the suppliers and takes over the contracts.

Pay, clearly

What buyers and procurement managers earn in Salisbury

How it works

Brief, search, shortlist

The brief

Categories, spend, suppliers, systems and the result the new buyer needs to deliver.

Interviews and presentations

We arrange interviews and any negotiation exercise or presentation, then brief each candidate.

References

We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.

Your brief

The brief that works

Interim buyers are useful for a single project. Ongoing categories need someone who will still be there at the next renewal.

If a procurement role is hard to fill, we find out whether pay, scope or reporting line is the cause and tell you plainly.

A strong procurement brief covers:

  • The categories the role will buy
  • Annual spend under management
  • Direct or indirect focus
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
