Job Description - Buyer

Our client is a leading supplier of construction site consumables to the housebuilding and wider construction industries.
As they continue to grow, they are looking for a commercially minded and detail-focused Buyer to join their team at their offices in Doncaster.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone already in their procurement career who is ready to take ownership, build strong supplier partnerships, and make a measurable impact within a fast-paced and ambitious business.

If you are analytical, driven, and motivated by improving performance and delivering commercial value, we would love to hear from you.

The Role

Working closely with the Procurement Director and wider commercial team, you will play a key role in strengthening supplier relationships, improving stock efficiency, and supporting margin growth.

  • Support commercial negotiations with key supply chain partners, including preparing analysis and presentations
  • Raise and manage purchase orders to ensure consistent product availability and optimised stock levels
  • Work closely with the Sales Team to competitively source new, special, and high-volume SKUs
  • Continuously review stock profiles to improve availability, reduce duplication, and optimise working capital
  • Analyse trends in sales and purchasing data to identify margin and sourcing opportunities
  • Review seasonal product requirements to ensure availability ahead of demand
  • Liaise with suppliers to ensure full regulatory and product compliance
  • Previous experience in a fast-paced procurement, buying, or commercial environment
  • Strong analytical skills with confidence working in Excel and interpreting data
  • Commercial awareness with the ability to identify cost-saving and margin opportunities
  • Confident communication and negotiation skills
