We recruit procurement and purchasing people for Settle and Yorkshire & the Humber, screened on the spend they have managed and the savings they can evidence.
Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.
Procurement vacancies across North Yorkshire come from agri-food and dairy processing, agricultural machinery and supply, retail distribution and regional hauliers. Each needs buyers who can balance price, service and risk.
A buyer who leaves mid-tender takes the negotiation history and the supplier relationships with them.
Businesses operating from sites such as the A1(M) corridor distribution points around Northallerton and Thirsk compete for experienced buyers, which keeps salaries competitive.
Permanent procurement roles, from purchasing assistants to heads of procurement.
We ask for a real negotiation, what was at stake and what the candidate gave away to win it.
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 Settle 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.
Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.
We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.
We help agree the package and manage the notice period through to the start date.
A permanent buyer learns your suppliers, your contracts and your history of price rises. That knowledge compounds at every renewal.
We ask candidates what made them leave their last procurement role. It tells us whether yours will keep them.
