Technical Buyer

Basingstoke

£36k - £38k plus private health

Everyone knows Technical Buyers require superhuman skills. Incredible attention to detail, laser like focus, an ability to create BOMs from technical drawings that mere mortals can t hope to understand.

In this job you ll be appreciated for using those attributes and then upskilled even more!

You ll join a global fibre optic company who lead the way in connectivity. That means you ll be buying components for products across design, prototype and wide-scale distribution so stock planning (not forecasting) is key.

You ll quickly get up to speed on analysing technical drawing to compile BOMs and staying on top of the large product inventory. Optimising stock quality, cost and lead time is a given in any Buyer role but you ll also get to work with your colleagues globally to help with sourcing and technical queries.

The Technical Buyer role isn t for the faint hearted but if you enjoy the data analysis and planning side of things you re going to love this.

It s a hybrid role, based in the friendly Basingstoke office Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

To hit the ground running you will need to have technical buying experience from industries like telecoms, engineering or component manufacturing.

Any background in usage-based stock planning (as opposed to forecasting) would be great.

You ll be joining a diverse and welcoming buying team who collaborate with colleagues across the world daily. This is a job with global scope and a company which prioritises your professional growth and wellbeing plans are already afoot to continue developing this role along the NPI/NPD projects route once you re in the swing of things.

If you re looking for a long-term career with a global outlook apply now!
