Procurement Buyer
Yeovil, UK | £17 – £21.30 per hour (DOE)
Full-time | Mon–Fri, 8am–5pm | Site-based with occasional travel
An Opportunity to Apply Your Intelligence Where It Matters Our client, a global leader in advanced manufacturing and aerospace systems, is looking for a Procurement Buyer to join their high-performance supply chain team in Yeovil.
This is a role for someone who thinks strategically, operates with precision, and understands that procurement is more than just ordering parts — it’s about ensuring operational flow, maintaining technical integrity, and supporting large-scale engineering programmes.
Why This Role Stands Out
- You'll be working within a highly regulated, engineering-driven environment where procurement is essential to mission success.
- The client offers a setting where your thinking and input will shape real outcomes, not get lost in red tape.
- The team is intelligent, focused, and collaborative — ideal for someone who enjoys solving operational puzzles and engaging with cross-functional stakeholders.
- You’ll be trusted with ownership of the procurement process, interacting directly with suppliers and internal teams to keep production running smoothly.
Key Responsibilities
- Respond to MRP requirements by sourcing and securing materials aligned with production timelines and inventory strategies.
- Manage the full lifecycle of purchase orders — from creation through to closure — ensuring accuracy and compliance.
- Conduct supplier forecasting and performance reviews, taking a proactive approach to risk management.
- Resolve invoice discrepancies, customs delays, and quality issues, coordinating with engineering and quality teams when necessary.
- Lead conversations with suppliers to drive accountability and delivery performance.
- Continuously identify opportunities to streamline the procurement process and strengthen supplier relationships.
Ideal Candidate Profile The client is looking for someone who:
- Has experience in a procurement or buying role, preferably in a technical or manufacturing environment.
- Is familiar with SAP or similar ERP platforms and confident navigating complex systems.
- Demonstrates strong analytical capability, with advanced Excel skills and a data-first mindset.
- Communicates clearly and effectively, internally and externally, and negotiates based on insight, not instinct.
- Is highly organised, autonomous, and thrives in environments where priorities shift and problems need fast, intelligent solutions.
- Understands and respects the importance of compliance, regulation, and process discipline in a safety-critical industry.
What the Client Offers
- A challenging, engaging role in a world-class manufacturing environment.
- Exposure to high-impact programmes within aerospace and defence.
- A team culture that values intelligence, collaboration, and results.
- Full training provided, including systems, process, and safety protocols.
Additional Requirements
- Candidates must be eligible for BPSS clearance, including DBS check and drug screening.
- Must have the legal right to work in the UK.
- This role is subject to Export Control regulations.
- Willingness to travel occasionally to supplier sites.
Interested? This role offers a genuine opportunity for a capable, curious professional to apply their skills in a meaningful way. If you're looking for complexity, responsibility, and a work environment that respects intelligence and initiative, we’d love to hear from you
