Salary:
Competitive + benefits

We're working with a well-established healthcare services organisation that is looking to add a Buyer to its growing procurement and operations team. Please note this isn't a senior role so will suit an Assistant Buyer, Junior Buyer or Procurement Assistant.

This is a varied and fast-paced position that would suit someone with strong organisational skills, a keen eye for detail, and experience supporting procurement or service operations functions. You'll play a key role in managing service contract activity, supplier coordination and internal stakeholder support across a specialist healthcare environment.

Key responsibilities:
  • Managing service-related purchasing activity and supplier coordination
  • Supporting the procurement of service contracts in line with operational requirements
  • Handling a busy shared inbox, responding to queries, invoices, and service requests
  • Maintaining accurate service contract and supplier records
  • Obtaining quotations and liaising with suppliers to support procurement activity
  • Assisting with supplier performance monitoring and KPI tracking
  • Supporting projects, reporting, and data management activities
  • Building strong working relationships with internal teams and external suppliers
What we're looking for:
  • Previous experience working within a fast-paced administrative, procurement, or operational support role
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Excellent organisation and attention to detail
  • Intermediate Excel skills
  • Experience working with complex databases or systems
  • Exposure to procurement or service contract environments would be beneficial
  • Knowledge of biomedical, medical device or endoscopy sectors would be advantageous but not essential

This is an excellent opportunity to join a collaborative organisation offering long-term stability, hybrid working and the chance to develop within a specialist procurement environment.

Please note:

Successful applicants will be required to complete an enhanced DBS check.
