Buyer | Hull | Permanent

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Buyer to join a well-established and growing business operating within a highly specialised global supply chain environment.

This is an exciting role for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced, collaborative setting where no two days look the same. The business has built a strong reputation within its sector and offers a supportive team culture, long-term stability and genuine opportunities to develop your career within procurement and operations.

The successful candidate will play a key role in managing supplier relationships, stock purchasing and operational procurement activities across a dynamic and fast-moving supply chain.

This position requires someone commercially aware, highly organised and adaptable - comfortable balancing both reactive Just-In-Time purchasing alongside more strategic, trend-led buying based on market demand and customer requirements.

Key Responsibilities:

• Managing purchasing activity and raising purchase orders
• Obtaining supplier quotations and negotiating pricing
• Monitoring supplier performance and spend
• Supporting stock control and inventory management
• Managing supplier returns and stock discrepancies
• Assisting with reporting, invoice queries and procurement administration
• Working closely with internal departments to maintain operational efficiency

What We’re Looking For:

• Previous buying, procurement or stock control experience
• Strong organisational and multitasking skills
• Ability to work effectively within a fast-paced environment
• Commercial awareness and strong attention to detail
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• Proactive, team-oriented approach
• Confident working across multiple priorities simultaneously
• Experience within regulated industries would be advantageous, but not essential.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join a business that values collaboration, accountability and continuous improvement, whilst offering exposure to a unique and evolving market sector.
