Are you a commercially driven purchasing leader who thrives on improving performance, building high-value supplier partnerships and creating best-in-class procurement operations?

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a successful, privately owned mechanical & electrical wholesaler with ambitious growth plans. As Purchasing Manager, you'll play a pivotal role within the senior leadership team, taking ownership of purchasing strategy while transforming systems, processes and supplier performance to support the next phase of the company's journey.

This isn't simply about buying products, it's about driving commercial success, influencing business strategy and building a purchasing function that delivers real competitive advantage.

The opportunity:

Reporting directly to the Operations Director, you'll lead and develop a motivated purchasing team while taking full responsibility for procurement strategy, inventory management, supplier relationships and operational excellence.

You'll have the autonomy to introduce fresh ideas and implement improvements that enhance efficiency, profitability and customer service.

This is a role for someone who enjoys making things better and wants to leave a lasting impact on a growing business.

The client:

Our client is a well-established, family-owned independent mechanical & electrical wholesaler with an outstanding reputation for customer service, product availability and long-term relationships.

Their continued success has been built on delivering the right products, at the right price, at the right time. As the business continues to grow, they're investing in their people, systems and processes to ensure they remain a market leader and this role is central to that vision.

About You

You're an experienced Purchasing Manager or Procurement Manager who combines commercial acumen with a hands-on, proactive approach.
You'll bring:

A proven track record of improving purchasing functions and delivering operational efficiencies
Strong supplier negotiation and relationship management skills
Excellent commercial awareness with strong analytical and financial understanding
The confidence to influence stakeholders and drive positive changeMost importantly, you're someone who enjoys taking ownership, embraces continuous improvement and is motivated by seeing the tangible impact of your work.

Why apply?

This is far more than a purchasing role, it's an opportunity to become a key member of the leadership team within an ambitious, entrepreneurial business where your expertise will genuinely shape future success.
You'll enjoy:

A highly visible leadership position with real influence
The freedom to introduce new ideas and drive meaningful change
Excellent long-term career prospects within a growing organisationIf you're ready to take ownership, influence business performance and play a key role in an exciting growth journey, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today with your CV quoting reference 10434
