Job Title: Buyer (Mid-Career)
Location: Livingston (UK)
Steady Hands Wanted in a Shifting Wind!
At Full Circle Wind Services, things move fast. We're scaling up, building systems as we go, and navigating international operations with a small but mighty team. If you’re the kind of Buyer who thrives in a bit of organised chaos, knows when to follow the rules and when to write new ones, and loves seeing the impact of your work every single day — we’ve got a seat for you.
What You'll Be Doing
You're making sure technicians get the parts they need on time, projects keep spinning, and suppliers know we mean business. As we’re expending our business and turbine types, you’ll not just be working with existing suppliers; you’ll be working with engineering to identify new parts and you’ll be on the hunt for new suppliers. All to ensure our technicians can maintain those turbines in line with our top-notch standards on quality and time.
Sourcing with a Sixth Sense
You find and manage suppliers who deliver quality, reliability and value — whether it’s turbine blades or tiny bolts.
Contracts & Cost-Saving Combos
Negotiate smart deals that keep us competitive without compromising on quality or timelines.
Forecasting Without a Crystal Ball
Anticipate demand and plan ahead, even when the data isn’t perfect. You know when to trust the system — and when to trust your gut.
Keeping Stock in Line
Maintain optimal inventory levels and reorder before things get critical. Yes, sometimes it’s reactive — that’s the job. But you know how to stay ahead.
Systems in Progress
We’re not system-perfect (yet). You’ll need to work with what’s there, help improve it, and flag what’s missing.
Working Across Borders & Functions
You’ll collaborate with technicians, project managers, finance teams and suppliers across Europe. And yes, sometimes things get noisy — we’re counting on you to stay calm and cut through the clutter.
Keeping It Clean
Your documentation is clear, your records are audit-ready, and your spreadsheets… well, let’s just say you and Excel are on good terms.
What We’re Looking For:
* A bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Procurement, Business or similar.
* 4–7 years of experience in procurement or supply chain — in a technical, service-based. Worked in an international setting? Even better!
* Great negotiation and communication skills.
* Organised, proactive and able to work independently.
* Experience with ERP systems.

NOTE TO 3RD PARTIES:
Here at Full Circle we are very lucky to be very successful recruiting all our new employees ourselves. Something we are very proud of.
Despite our kind requests to all of you not to reach out for support in this area, our HR team, hiring managers and our front office are overwhelmed with contact requests, telephone calls, email requests and other attempts to get in touch. We know you guys are out there, we understand that this cold acquisition is part of your job, but we strongly request you to respect our time and not reach out. We want to use all the time we have to make the world a greener place!
If we ever need support, we'll work with our preferred suppliers (and no, we are not looking for new ones ;-))
We appreciate your understanding on this, and we wish you the best of luck on finding your next client.
