Join One of the South West's Most Established Independent Plumbing & Heating Merchants
At BBS Plumbing & Heating Supplies, we've been supporting tradespeople, developers and contractors since 1933. As a proud family-owned business with more than 90 years of heritage, we've built our reputation on exceptional service, strong supplier relationships and a deep understanding of our customers' needs.
Today, BBS serves the South West from branches in Bristol, Yate, Weston-super-Mare and Bath, supplying a wide range of customers including commercial developers, maintenance firms, domestic heating engineers, property developers and renewable energy installers. As the industry continues its transition towards low-carbon technologies, we're helping customers embrace the future through market-leading renewable heating and plumbing solutions.
We're also growing.
With plans to open additional branches across the South West in the coming years, we're entering an exciting new phase of expansion. For ambitious professionals, that growth creates genuine opportunities to influence the future of the business while building a rewarding long-term career.
Scale Creates Opportunity.
The most rewarding careers are built when talented people join businesses at the point where ambition meets opportunity.
At BBS Plumbing & Heating Supplies, we're investing in our future and strengthening our purchasing capability through the appointment of an experienced Buyer.
Working directly alongside the Purchasing Director, you'll play a key role in identifying commercial opportunities, developing category performance, strengthening supplier partnerships and ensuring BBS continues to outperform the market as it delivers its ambitious growth plans.
We're Interested in Speaking with People Who Know Our Industry
We're particularly keen to hear from professionals who have 3-5 years’ experience developing categories, managing supplier relationships and driving commercial performance with manufacturers such as:
- Worcester Bosch
- Vaillant
- Ideal Standard
- Grundfos
- Wavin
- Viessmann
- Intatec
Whether your background is with a national merchant, independent merchant, distributor or manufacturer, you'll understand the value of strong supplier partnerships and the commercial opportunities they create.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
This is much more than a traditional buying role. You'll work closely with the Purchasing Director and senior leadership team to help shape the future direction of the purchasing function, strengthen relationships with leading manufacturers and contribute to the development of a high-performing team capable of supporting BBS's long-term growth ambitions.
As a growing independent business, your ideas, decisions and achievements will have real visibility and impact.
Reward & Benefits
We offer competitive and rewarding remuneration packages that reflect the responsibilities of the role and the level of experience required. Benefits and additional rewards vary by role and grade and will be discussed during the recruitment process.
Apply
If you're looking for an opportunity where your expertise can directly influence business performance and help shape the future of one of the South West's most respected independent merchants, we'd love to hear from you.
