About Us

John George is a family run business that has been trading since 1725. The company provides nails, woodscrews, bolts & nuts, ﬁxings & fastenings, fencing, sealants, ironmongery and building products to trade customers such as builders merchants, fencing suppliers, rooﬁng merchants and DIY outlets.

Over the years John George has developed a number of brands to meet the needs of a technologically advancing building and DIY trade. These include Super Drive, Exocet, Fence-Pro, Gate-Pro, Timberfast, Impact and Teknix.

Our customers beneﬁt from a fast, efficient nationwide service delivered from our own depots, on our own vehicles. This gives us the ﬂexibility to meet the requirements of our customers, large and small.

Our vision to be the most consistently dependable and trustworthy supplier to our customers is supported by our core company values:

- Customer ﬁrst

- Being one team

- Own it & get it done

- Creating a positive, inclusive environment

- Seeing beyond your goals

We are seeking a well-educated, Company Buying Manager, who is bright, experienced, ambitious and keen to drive our business to be even better, and who can take real ownership of their team.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced Buying Manager to take full ownership of our purchasing function. This is a senior, standalone role with real influence across the business. You will be responsible for shaping buying strategy while also managing the day to day operational buying that keeps our shelves stocked and our customers happy.

This role would suit someone who is commercially sharp, highly organised and comfortable switching between long term planning and hands on problem solving. You will work closely with Sales, Operations and Finance to ensure we have the right products, at the right price, in the right place, at the right time.

Key Responsibilities:

Strategic

Develop and deliver the overall buying and category strategy across the company product ranges
Build strong, long term relationships with key suppliers in the UK and overseas
Lead commercial negotiations on pricing, rebates, terms and supply agreements
Identify opportunities for range development, product & packaging innovation and margin & operational improvements
Monitor market trends, raw material movements and competitor activity to inform pricing and sourcing decisions
Support the development and growth of own brand and exclusive product lines

Operational

Manage day to day purchasing activity to maintain optimum stock levels across all depots
Oversee demand forecasting and replenishment planning using sales data and seasonal trends
Work closely with Warehouse and Operations teams to balance availability, stock turn and storage capacity
Resolve supply issues, shortages and quality concerns quickly and effectively
Maintain accurate product, supplier and pricing data within the ERP system
Ensure all products, packaging and shipping materials meet required quality, compliance and safety standards
Maintain and operate any statutory or regulatory requirements with regards to products

Financial and Commercial

Take accountability for buying budgets, stock holding and working capital
Drive margin improvement through effective negotiation, range rationalisation and supplier performance management
Analyse sales and margin data to inform buying decisions and promotional activity
Contribute to pricing strategy in partnership with the Sales function

Supplier and Stakeholder Management

Act as the main point of contact for suppliers
Conduct regular supplier performance reviews covering service, quality, lead times and cost
Work cross functionally to ensure alignment between buying, sales forecasts and operational capacity
Provide product insight and support to the Sales team to help win and retain business

What Success Looks Like

High product availability with reduced emergency buying
Improved stock turn and controlled stock holding
Strong supplier partnerships with measurable commercial benefit
Clear, data led range decisions that drive sales and margin
A buying function that is proactive, not reactive

Skills and Experience

Proven experience in a senior buying or procurement role, ideally within industrial fasteners, fixings, building products or a related trade environment
Strong commercial negotiation skills with a track record of delivering cost savings and improved terms
Experience managing stock, forecasting and supply planning in a multi site environment
Comfortable working with data, reports and ERP systems
Able to operate both strategically and tactically in a standalone role
Good understanding of supply chains, including imported goods
Confident communicator who can build credibility with suppliers and internal teams

Personal Attributes

We are looking for someone who:

Takes real ownership and accountability
Is practical, proactive and solutions focused
Can see the big picture while still caring about the detail
Builds strong working relationships across all levels
Is comfortable in a hands on, evolving business rather than a rigid corporate structure
Wants to make a genuine impact on the success of the company

Why Join Us

This is an opportunity to take full responsibility for a critical function in a well-established, values driven business. You will have the autonomy to shape how buying is done, the support of an experienced leadership team, and the chance to make a visible difference to performance and growth.
