Procurement Manager – Because "Master of Bargains" Wasn't a Real Job Title

Location: Manchester

Job Type: Full-time | Permanent

Free Onsite Parking (No more fighting for street parking)

Are you the Sherlock Holmes of sourcing? The Jedi of JIT (Just-In-Time) inventory? The wizard who can turn pennies into pounds while keeping quality top-notch? Then we need you

About the Role

We're on the hunt for a Procurement Manager who knows their way around suppliers, contracts, and cost-saving magic. You'll be the mastermind behind our supply chain, ensuring our engineering projects run smoothly with all the right parts, at the right time, for the right price.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Sourcing and negotiating like a pro – getting the best deals without compromising quality
  • Keeping the stock levels just right – goldilocks style... not too much, not too little, but just perfect
  • Ownership of POs and electronic filing/traceability
  • Managing a team of two
  • Building great relationships with suppliers (and knowing when to play hardball)
  • Keeping an eye on budgets, contracts, and supply chain performance like a hawk
  • Supporting our engineering team so they can focus on doing what they do best

What We're Looking For

  • Procurement experience in an engineering or manufacturing environment
  • Someone who understands Engineering Terminology - Understands what a bearing is.
  • A natural negotiator with a keen eye for value
  • Someone who loves solving problems and thrives under pressure
  • A bit of a "data nerd" – comfortable with reports, forecasts, and the occasional spreadsheet
  • A great communicator who can keep both suppliers and internal teams happy
  • Someone with experience of SAGE

What's in It for You?

  • The chance to make a real impact in a dynamic engineering company
  • Free onsite parking (because life's too short to hunt for a space)
  • A supportive and friendly team who actually enjoy what they do
  • Competitive salary (because we know great talent is worth it)

If you're ready to step up, shake things up, and save the day (or at least the supply chain), we'd love to hear from you

Apply now and let's talk procurement magic; hit apply or contact me on 01676 525049 or email me your CV on ryan.pruett@pertemps.co.uk
