Make a measurable difference through efficient and strategic procurement.

Bowers Group, part of the Spear & Jackson Group, is seeking a Procurement Officer to join our team in Bradford. This is a key role within the Purchasing department, responsible for ensuring the timely and cost-effective sourcing of goods and services that meet the operational needs of the business.

Working on-site five days a week this role aligns to the factory operating hours, as such you will collaborate closely with teams across production, logistics, and finance. You will also support the Senior Purchasing and Procurement Manager in delivering procurement strategies that align with company objectives, helping to ensure supplier performance, cost control, and stock availability.

You will be responsible for generating purchase orders, managing vendor relationships, negotiating pricing and payment terms, and ensuring goods meet quality standards. Your role will involve analysing procurement data, identifying opportunities for cost savings, and ensuring compliance with internal policies and external regulations.

A key part of your responsibility will be to monitor supplier performance, help onboard new suppliers, and identify potential risks in the supply chain. You will contribute to efforts aimed at reducing stock provisions and avoiding overstocking, while maintaining a high level of service and operational efficiency.

The ideal candidate will possess excellent negotiation and communication skills, with the ability to analyse procurement data and take proactive action. A solid understanding and demonstrated expertise in procurement and supply chain management is essential. Proficiency in Microsoft Excel is essential, and experience with SAP or similar systems would be advantageous. Familiarity with engineering drawings and the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively will also be important in this role.

A full UK driving licence is required, as occasional supplier visits will be necessary.
