Work closely with operations, production, estimating and accounts to ensure requirements are understood and delivered
Review and improve purchasing procedures, systems and reporting
Support cost reduction, supplier consolidation and general efficiency improvements
Help ensure purchase orders, supplier records and procurement data are accurate and well managed
Provide leadership and structure within the purchasing department

What we are looking for

Essential

Proven experience in a purchasing or procurement role at senior buyer or manager level
Strong negotiation and supplier management skills
Experience working in a manufacturing, engineering or industrial environment
Good commercial awareness and cost control mindset
Confident using ERP, MRP or purchasing systems
Able to prioritise, organise workload and manage competing demands
Strong communication skills and able to work effectively across departments
Practical, hands-on approach with a focus on getting things done

Desirable

Previous experience managing or developing a purchasing team
Experience improving procurement processes and systems
Knowledge of stock control and material planning
CIPS qualification or similar professional training

What we offer

Permanent, full-time role
Opportunity to shape and improve an important business function
Varied and commercially important position within an established business
Supportive working environment with direct influence on operational performance

Our Culture

At Berry & Escott, we believe our strength comes from our people. We are proud to foster a workplace where every voice is valued, and everyone feels supported to perform at their best.

A diverse team brings fresh ideas, better decisions, and stronger results—for our people, our customers, and our community. When you join us, you’ll be part of an open and welcoming environment where individuality is celebrated.
