Lead Buyer

We're recruiting a Lead Buyer for a well-established manufacturing business based in Yorkshire.

Key responsibilities include:

* Leading the purchasing function.

* Negotiating supplier contracts and driving cost savings.

* Building and managing supplier relationships.

* Ensuring suppliers meet quality and food safety standards.

A real highlight of this opportunity is the chance to shape and improve the purchasing function. With grass-roots systems and processes, you'll have the freedom to introduce new ideas, improve ways of working, and make a lasting impact.

The business supplies major retail, hospitality, and business customers across the UK. If you're looking for a senior buying role where your experience can influence the future of the business, we'd love to hear from you
