West Midlands

West Bromwich procurement recruitment

Every procurement candidate we put forward is screened on the spend they managed and the savings they evidenced.

Procurement employers across the West Midlands include automotive and manufacturing supply chains, national 3PLs and retail distribution centres. Each buys differently, so we recruit to the categories rather than the job title.

A buyer who leaves mid-tender takes the negotiation history and the supplier relationships with them.

Businesses operating from sites such as the Golden Triangle parks at Hams Hall and Birch Coppice, the i54 and the M6/M42 distribution belt compete for experienced buyers, which keeps salaries competitive.
