Buyers who cut cost without cutting service, for businesses across the East of England and their supply chains.
Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.
Operations across the East of England rely on the A14, M11, A1(M) and A12, the Port of Felixstowe and London Stansted Airport. Buyers who understand those routes negotiate freight and warehousing contracts from a stronger position.
A buyer who leaves mid-tender takes the negotiation history and the supplier relationships with them.
Procurement demand across the East of England follows container and forwarding operators, agri-food and cold-chain distribution, e-commerce fulfilment and regional 3PLs.
Procurement roles for retail, manufacturing, 3PL and public sector supply chains.
Freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel, packaging or materials handling: we match buyers to the categories you buy.
Where the role asks for a professional procurement qualification such as CIPS, we confirm it before the shortlist.
We stay in contact while the new buyer meets the suppliers and takes over the contracts.
Indicative permanent salaries in Sudbury run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
If the offer looks light against the procurement market, we say so before interviews are arranged. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
Most good buyers are approached, not found on job boards.
A small number of candidates, each with notes on categories, spend and results.
A buyer who remembers the last tender knows where the supplier has room to move.
We describe the spend data and systems as they really are, so nobody is surprised in month one.
