    The role
    Based in Bradford, but with some requirement for UK travel, this role has responsibility for a £4m budget, and procurement of all purchasing requirements of the organisation, from stationery upwards.

    Reduction of rejects and returns
    “Just In Time” delivery performance
    Reduction of average stock holding
    Lean and re-organised purchasing office function

    The ideal candidate will
    Be CIPS qualified ideally, but this is not essential
    Be available to spend some time away from home to travel to the organisation Head Office
    Have a very “hands on” attitude to purchasing
    Automatically challenge procedures and conventions in a professional manner
    Have strong negotiating skills

    This role will attract a salary of £30,000 plus bonuses based on KPI achievements, plus company pension.
