Procurement Recruitment in Telford

Procurement recruitment for Telford employers buying freight, warehousing, fleet, fuel and packaging, where every renewal counts.

West Midlands

Purchasing and sourcing hiring across Telford

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

Procurement employers across the West Midlands include automotive and component supply chains, national retail DCs, contract logistics providers and rail-linked operators. Each buys differently, so we recruit to the categories rather than the job title.

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

Experienced buyers supporting sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, the i54 and the rail-freight terminals around Birmingham are usually approached directly rather than through adverts.
