Permanent buyers, category managers and procurement leaders for businesses in Wigan, recruited for the value they add to every contract.
Procurement is judged on savings, supplier performance and risk. We recruit buyers who can show all three.
Operations across the North West rely on the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool. Buyers who understand those routes negotiate freight and warehousing contracts from a stronger position.
Procurement offers compete with retailers, manufacturers and the public sector. We help pitch salary, bonus and flexibility so the first offer is accepted.
Across the North West, buyers and category managers are hired by retail and grocery DCs, national 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and port and container logistics.
Permanent procurement roles matched to categories, spend and seniority.
Winning a contract is half the job. We look for buyers who manage suppliers well after the signature.
We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.
For a new or growing procurement function we can recruit the manager and the buyers together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Wigan run from around £30k for buyers up to £80k+ for heads of procurement.
An offer pitched at the market is accepted faster. Ask us for a current read on procurement pay before the role is advertised. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.
Spend, savings, negotiations, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews and any negotiation exercise or presentation, then brief each candidate.
A buyer who remembers the last tender knows where the supplier has room to move.
Buyers who leave early often cite little influence, poor data or a business that ignores procurement. We raise all three first.
