We're partnering with a leading multi-branded fast-paced manufacturing business that is continuing to grow, and as part of that expansion, we're recruiting a brand-new Junior Buyer to join their procurement team.

Raise and process purchase orders accurately and on time.
Support supplier evaluations and wider sourcing activities.
Maintain supplier files and build accurate supplier databases.
Assist with cost-saving initiatives and continuous improvement projects.
Work closely with production, operations, and supply chain teams to support efficient day-to-day processes and new product launches.
Provide administrative and purchasing support to the Purchasing Manager.
What You'll Bring
Confident using Microsoft Office, especially Excel.
Strong organisational and time management abilities.
Interest in purchasing, procurement, or supply chain.
Willingness to learn and take on new challenges.
A proactive, team-focused approach with good communication skills.
Strong attention to detail and a desire to build long-term procurement expertise.
Why Apply?
This is a newly created role within a growing business, offering excellent exposure to procurement, operations, and supply chain. You'll gain hands-on experience, work with an experienced Purchasing Manager, and have clear opportunities to progress as the department continues to expand.
