Job description

Are you an experienced Buyer with a background in manufacturing? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where you can build strong supplier relationships, negotiate effectively and play a key role in keeping production moving?
Our client is a well-established and growing manufacturing business that is investing in its future. Due to continued growth, they are looking to recruit a Buyer to join their busy Supply Chain team based in South Oxfordshire.
Working alongside an experienced Purchasing team, you will take ownership of a specialist commodity group, managing suppliers and ensuring materials, goods and services are delivered on time and at the best possible value to support production.
The Role
. Manage a portfolio of suppliers within a specialist commodity group.
. Place purchase orders in line with production demand.
. Monitor supplier performance and drive continuous improvement.
. Build and maintain strong supplier relationships.
. Ensure materials are delivered on time to meet manufacturing schedules.
. Maintain accurate supplier and purchasing data within the ERP system (SAP experience advantageous).
. Work closely with internal departments to support business objectives.
About You
We're looking for someone who has:
. Previous buying or purchasing experience within a manufacturing environment.
. Experience working with an ERP system and strong Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel.
. The ability to interpret technical drawings and technical information.
. Excellent communication, negotiation and relationship-building skills.
. Experience within a commodity group such as mechanical components, composites or marine components would be an advantage but is not essential.
If you're an experienced Buyer looking for your next opportunity with a growing manufacturer, we'd love to hear from you.
