You will work closely with Production, Engineering, Quality, Stores, Sales and Finance to ensure our manufacturing operations continue to operate efficiently whilst identifying opportunities to reduce costs, improve supplier performance and strengthen supply chain resilience.

Key Responsibilities

Work closely with Production Planning and Stores to maintain optimum inventory levels.
Identify opportunities to reduce purchasing costs without compromising quality or delivery.
Support supplier audits and work alongside the Quality Department to ensure purchased materials comply with engineering specifications and certification requirements.
Ensure material certification, traceability and compliance documentation are obtained where required.
Develop approved supplier lists and supplier performance scorecards.
Produce regular purchasing reports covering expenditure, supplier performance, savings and stock trends.
Support continuous improvement initiatives throughout the business.

What We're Looking For

The successful candidate will have:

Minimum of five years' experience within a Purchasing, Procurement or Supply Chain Management role.
Experience within engineering, steel fabrication, manufacturing or heavy industrial environments.
Excellent commercial awareness with strong negotiation and supplier management skills.
Experience purchasing engineering materials including steel, fabricated components, coatings or industrial products.
Good understanding of inventory management and supply chain planning.
Experience using Sage 50 or similar ERP/MRP systems.
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills with strong analytical ability.
Excellent organisational and communication skills.
Ability to work under pressure whilst managing multiple priorities.
A proactive, solutions-focused approach with excellent attention to detail.

Desirable

CIPS qualification or working towards CIPS.
Experience within the UK Water, Utilities, Gas or Infrastructure sectors.
Knowledge of ISO 9001 quality systems.
Experience purchasing internationally and managing import logistics.

What We Offer

Competitive salary (dependent upon experience).
