Full job description

About Us

We’re an established aerosol and liquid manufacturer with an £8 million turnover and a team of around 45 people. We’re looking for an experienced Purchasing Manager to take ownership of procurement across our supply chain and to lead a broader operational team spanning purchasing, stock, warehouse, and sales administration.

The Role

At its core, this role exists to place purchase orders and ensure the right stock is on site in time for production to meet customer requirements. You’ll own that process end to end — from sourcing and negotiating with suppliers through to making sure materials land on time, every time.

This is a senior leadership role reporting directly to the Directors, in line with our other senior managers. You’ll manage a cross-functional team and work closely with production, sales, and the wider office to keep everyone in the loop — strong, proactive communication is essential, as is the ability to refine and tighten up our existing processes rather than leave gaps for things to fall through.

You’ll manage:

Stock Coordinator (who in turn manages pre-assemblies for production)
Warehouse Picker
Sales Administrators (who process customer orders)

On the purchasing side, we need someone who is strong at sourcing — finding new raw materials, components, and suppliers, getting quotes and samples, and making sound commercial and technical judgement calls. You’ll need a solid grasp of how raw materials, components, and packaging interact with our production process, specifications, and lead times, so that purchasing decisions hold up and stock arrives when it’s needed.

Key Responsibilities

Purchasing & Supply

Place purchase orders and manage supply timing so materials are on site in time for production to meet customer requirements
Proactively source new raw materials, components, and suppliers — including obtaining quotes and samples
Negotiate pricing, terms, and contracts with suppliers, with a genuine focus on cost control and margin protection
Build and maintain strong supplier relationships, balancing cost, quality, and reliability
Apply technical/specification knowledge to purchasing decisions — what materials are fit for purpose, and why

Team Leadership & Communication

Manage and develop the Stock Coordinator, Warehouse Picker, and Sales Administrators (with pre-assembly/labelling managed via the Stock Coordinator)
Foster clear, proactive communication across the team and wider office so everyone stays in the loop on stock, orders, and supply issues
Refine and tighten existing purchasing, stock, and order-processing procedures where gaps or inconsistencies show up
Performance manage the team and resolve operational issues across stock, warehouse, and order processing
Report directly to the Directors on procurement performance, team performance, and supply chain risk

What We’re Looking For

Proven experience in a procurement/purchasing management role, ideally within manufacturing
A genuine track record of sourcing new suppliers and components — not just managing existing supplier accounts
Demonstrable experience managing and developing a team of 5 or more, across mixed functions
Strong technical understanding of materials/specifications relevant to manufacturing (chemicals, packaging, or components)
Confident, capable negotiator with a clear focus on commercial outcomes
A naturally collaborative communicator who keeps colleagues informed
Comfortable working within and refining existing purchasing/stock systems

Pay: £35,000.00-£52,000.00 per year

Only applicants located within 45 minutes of Pocklington will be considered

Experience:

Purchasing: 1 year (required)
Team management: 1 year (required)

Work authorisation:

United Kingdom (required)

Work Location: In person
