Are you an experienced Buyer, Procurement or Commercial professional looking to play a key role in delivering nationally significant infrastructure, highways and utilities projects while accelerating your procurement career?
I'm currently partnering with a highly respected infrastructure contractor to recruit a Senior Buyer into their Regional Commercial & Procurement team.
This is an excellent opportunity to join an established business with a strong pipeline of nationally significant infrastructure, highways and utilities projects. Working within a highly regarded Commercial & Procurement function, you'll lead subcontract procurement across the full project lifecycle, influencing supplier selection, commercial strategy and project delivery across major framework agreements.
The business combines the scale and stability of a leading contractor with the culture of a family-run organisation, offering a collaborative environment where hardworking, commercially minded people are trusted with responsibility and supported to build long-term careers.
Whether you're already an experienced Buyer or a commercially focused Quantity Surveyor or Commercial professional with strong subcontract procurement experience looking to move into procurement, this role offers genuine responsibility, leadership opportunities and a clear pathway towards Procurement Manager.
