Procurement Recruitment in Sutton

The sourcing, contract and supplier people who keep Sutton operations supplied at the right price.

London & the South East

A procurement recruitment desk for Sutton

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

Operations at sites such as London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt depend on suppliers that deliver. We match buyers to the categories that keep them running.

Procurement offers compete with retailers, manufacturers and the public sector. We help pitch salary, bonus and flexibility so the first offer is accepted.

Across London & the South East, buyers and category managers are hired by urban fulfilment and last-mile operators, grocery and convenience distribution, airfreight handlers and metropolitan 3PLs.

Your brief

Getting the brief right

A buyer who remembers the last tender knows where the supplier has room to move.

Strong buyers value a seat in commercial decisions, good spend data and a manager who backs their negotiations.

A strong procurement brief covers:

  • The categories the role will buy
  • Annual spend under management
  • The procurement and ERP systems in use
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
