Where an organisation has developed the internal capabilities, there is no need to pay third parties to find and develop factories and products, ship at less favourable rates and add additional margins. The Near Sourcing team need to proactively develop compelling commercial offers for products from factories that comply with strict technical and ethical standards and work closely with the Category Buying, Quality and Supply teams to leverage these opportunities to grow margin and satisfy our customers’ needs. The role will also support any future cost reduction, margin enhancement or commercial buying programmes to give leverage to competitive tender negotiations and yield increased financial returns.
An ideal next career step for an assistant buyer/buyer who is currently working in a retail head office.
