About Satsecure

Satsecure is a leading distributor in the security industry, recognised for our high-quality products and exceptional customer service. We continue to expand into related markets, embracing new technologies to provide the best solutions for our clients. We are now seeking a motivated Purchasing Manager to join our dynamic team to support our continued growth.

As a Purchasing Manager, you'll lead our procurement function and support the continued growth of our business. This is an exciting opportunity for a proactive professional who can drive value through strategic sourcing, effective supplier management, and continuous improvement of purchasing processes.

Reporting to senior management, you will be responsible for ensuring the timely, cost-effective, and quality-driven procurement of goods, while maintaining strong supplier relationships and supporting operational requirements.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage the end-to-end procurement process, ensuring the timely supply of goods and services in line with business requirements.
  • Source, evaluate, and negotiate with suppliers to secure the best commercial terms, quality, and service levels.
  • Build and maintain strong supplier relationships while monitoring supplier performance and resolving any issues.
  • Work closely with the operational team to forecast demand and maintain appropriate stock levels.
  • Identify and implement cost-saving initiatives while ensuring value for money and continuity of supply.
  • Develop and improve procurement policies, procedures, and best practices.
  • Monitor purchasing performance, analyse procurement data, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs).
  • Lead, support, and develop purchasing team members where applicable.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
