London, United Kingdom
Accountancy
Immediate Start
£40k - £50k Annual
Full-Time
Are you a strategic sourcing specialist who thrives in a fast-paced environment? DarcyBrook is recruiting for a leading global distribution business looking for a commercially sharp, highly organised Buyer to join their team.
Key Responsibilities
1. Global Supplier Management & Relationship Building
Source and manage a diverse portfolio of international suppliers, ensuring compliance with global trade regulations and company quality standards.
Evaluate supplier performance using KPIs related to delivery reliability, product quality, and cost competitiveness.
Mitigate supply chain risks by identifying backup suppliers and staying ahead of global market disruptions (tariffs, logistics bottlenecks, currency fluctuations).
2. Commercial Strategy & Negotiation
Drive margin improvements through aggressive yet fair negotiation of pricing, payment terms, volume discounts, and Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Analyse market trends and data to forecast price fluctuations and optimise purchasing timing.
Collaborate with internal sales and finance teams to ensure procurement strategies align with commercial targets and customer demand.
3. Inventory Optimisation & Organisation
Maintain optimal inventory levels across global distribution centres to prevent stock outs while minimising holding costs.
Manage end-to-end purchasing administrative processes, from generating Purchase Orders (POs) to tracking shipments and resolving invoice discrepancies.
What We Are Looking For
The Experience: 3–5 years of buying or procurement experience, specifically within a global distribution, wholesale, or FMCG environment.
The Commercial Mindset: You treat the company’s budget like your own money. You understand gross margins, total cost of ownership (TCO), and how purchasing decisions impact the bottom line.
The Negotiator: You view "no" as the starting point of a conversation. You possess excellent communication skills and can navigate cross-cultural business nuances with ease.
The Organiser: You are detail-oriented and capable of managing multiple projects, suppliers, and deadlines simultaneously without breaking a sweat.
The Tech Factor: Proficiency with ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or similar) and advanced Excel skills (VLOOKUPs, Pivot Tables) are highly desirable.
What We Offer
Competitive salary and performance-based bonus structure.
Global career progression opportunities within a rapidly expanding business.
A dynamic, collaborative working environment with flexible hybrid options
