Procurement Recruitment in Wishaw

We recruit procurement and purchasing people for Wishaw and Scotland, screened on the spend they have managed and the savings they can evidence.

Scotland

Recruiting buyers in Wishaw

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

Across Scotland, much of the buying supports operations at sites such as the M8 corridor parks at Eurocentral and Bellshill, Grangemouth and the Clyde and Forth ports. We search for buyers who already know that supplier market.

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

Procurement demand across Scotland follows grocery and retail DCs, food and drink supply chains, energy and port logistics and national 3PLs.

Negotiation tested

Supplier management

Winning a contract is half the job. We look for buyers who manage suppliers well after the signature.

Commercial judgement

We look for buyers who weigh service and risk as carefully as price.

How it works

From brief to start date

The brief

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

Market map

We identify the buyers doing similar work across a realistic commute.

References

We ask referees about savings delivered and supplier relationships, not just dates of employment.

Your brief

Before we start searching

An empty buying seat costs money: contracts roll over unchallenged and suppliers set the terms.

If a procurement role is hard to fill, we find out whether pay, scope or reporting line is the cause and tell you plainly.

A strong procurement brief covers:

  • The main suppliers and contract renewal dates
  • The procurement and ERP systems in use
  • Office, site and hybrid working pattern
  • Your interview process and any presentation
