South West

Tewkesbury procurement recruitment

Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.

Procurement vacancies across the South West come from port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs. Each needs buyers who can balance price, service and risk.

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

Procurement roles across the South West buy for operations at sites such as Avonmouth, Severnside and the M5 corridor running down to the West Country.

How it works

Three stages to a hire

The brief

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

Details that sharpen the search

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

A strong procurement brief covers:

  • Annual spend under management
  • The main suppliers and contract renewal dates
  • Savings and supplier performance targets
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it

Procurement FAQs

Frequently asked

How do you assess procurement candidates?

Not always. Some employers ask for a CIPS qualification and others put more weight on experience. Tell us which matters for your role and we will screen for it.

Can you benchmark a procurement salary?

Yes. We compare salary, bonus and hybrid terms with current offers for similar buying roles across the region.

Do you also recruit supply chain roles?

Yes. Our supply chain desk recruits demand and supply planners, analysts and supply chain managers.
