Work closely with Supply Chain to maximise product availability and minimise waste.
Collaborate with Sales, Technical and Operations teams to support business growth.
Analyse commercial data to support category performance and decision-making.
Attend supplier meetings and industry events to stay ahead of market developments.

What we're looking for

We're interested in hearing from candidates with experience in buying, procurement or category management who enjoy building supplier relationships and making commercially driven decisions.

You will also have:

Strong negotiation and influencing skills.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.
A commercial mindset with strong analytical skills.
The ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Good attention to detail and confidence working with data.
Strong Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Office skills.
Experience within food, FMCG, wholesale or distribution would be advantageous

Why join Pilgrim Foodservice?

Competitive salary.
Monday to Friday working pattern.
