About The Role

Are you a data driven, high energy professional who thrives on turning insight into action? We’re looking for an enthusiastic and diligent Category Buyer to join our Procurement Team in Walsall. You'll play a key role in driving efficiency and governance across our procurement function.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys working with data at scale - with a strong focus on analytics, reporting, and governance - while also gaining hands on exposure to the commercial side of buying.

If you’re passionate about data, curious about procurement, and motivated to deliver high output results in a fast paced environment, this is a fantastic opportunity to build your career in purchasing and commercial operations.

We work in a hybrid way, with a requirement to travel into our Walsall office 2-3 times a week to work with the team.

The Procurement function delivers measurable and sustainable value through a structured, data-led approach to sourcing, cost management, and supplier performance.

3. Process Administration & Governance

Administer the supplier onboarding process, ensuring appropriate approvals and compliance controls are in place
Support the administration of the supplier management framework, including performance reporting
Claim supplier rebates to ensure full value realisation
Review requisitions for compliance with procurement policies and identify opportunities for optimisation
Conduct sample audit checks on supplier pricing and invoices to ensure contractual compliance

4. Stakeholder & Supplier Engagement

Build effective working relationships with internal stakeholders to:
- Understand requirements
- Support specification development
- Promote procurement best practice
Provide guidance on sourcing routes and ensure efficient purchasing processes
Support supplier rationalisation and consolidation initiatives

Key Accountabilities

Accuracy, quality and timeliness of procurement reporting
Effective administration of procurement processes and controls
Delivery of measurable savings through analytics and low-value sourcing activity
