Senior Buyer - Electronics

Keplin Group is hiring a Buyer to join our growing team at Blake House, Cowley Business Park, Uxbridge.

We're a fast-moving, multi-brand consumer goods business selling across Shopify, Amazon, Tik Tok Shop, and D2C - with licensed partnerships including Disney and Bluey. This role sits at the heart of our product strategy: sourcing directly from Far East suppliers, shaping our electronics range, and helping us stay ahead of what UK consumers want next.

If you want a buying career that involves real supplier negotiation, international travel, and genuine influence over what we sell, not just processing orders, then read on.

Reporting to the Category Manager, you'll take ownership of sourcing and procuring electronics products end to end. You'll build and manage supplier relationships across the Far East, negotiate on price and quality, and make sure goods land on time.

Beyond sourcing, you'll work across 12+ categories, analysing market trends and spotting product opportunities before they're obvious, managing purchase orders, and working closely with logistics to keep the supply chain running smoothly.
