Looking for a role where organisation meets opportunity?
I’m partnering with a highly respected and growing organisation within the wholesale and supply sector to find an enthusiastic and detail-focused Buying Assistant to join their commercial team.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced administrator who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and loves being at the heart of a busy team.

🤝 Building strong relationships with suppliers, stakeholders, and business members
📝 Supporting tender processes, contracts, compliance documentation, and approval workflows
