Salary - £35,000 - £40,000
Joining our Purchasing Team as a Buyer, you will spend your time working between the operational team in our Melt Shop, and centrally within the procurement team. Your responsibilities will include negotiating with suppliers to get the best product price, collaborating with internal stakeholders to develop new contract processes, and building and maintaining relationships with external suppliers to monitor price, delivery and quality of products.
Ideally, you will have experience of working in a manufacturing environment, and have an existing knowledge of the products that you will be sourcing. However, the most important thing is that you’re an adaptable, resilient individual that enjoys working independently and collaborating with your team. You will be confident in communicating, negotiating and influencing internal and external stakeholders.
