Posting End Date

30 May 2026PandoLogic. Keywords: Purchasing Agent, Location: Derby, ENG - DE23 8YH

Salary: Up to £75,000 + 10% bonus + 10% pension

Location: Hybrid (2 days a week in Nottingham)

Working week: 35 hours

Plus: 1 day per month fully protected for personal development

Let’s be clear from the start…

· This is not a traditional “Architect” role.

· You won’t be buried in low-level design.

· You won’t be expected to own solution architecture.

· And you won’t be sat miles away from delivery drawing diagrams no one uses.

Instead, this is a role for someone who understands how business, product and technology actually come together — and knows how to keep it all moving in the right direction.

What’s the role really about?

This business is scaling, fast.

Multiple teams. Multiple products. Lots happening at once.

Naturally, that creates gaps…

Between teams. Between systems. Between good ideas and what actually gets delivered.

That’s where you come in.

You’ll sit across the landscape and:

• Connect the dots between business goals, product decisions and engineering delivery
• Spot risks, gaps and dependencies before they become problems
• Help teams understand how their work impacts the wider platform
• Work closely with Tech Leads, BAs, Product and stakeholders to shape the right approach
• Translate complex ideas into something clear, usable and actionable

Think of it as being the glue across the organisation — making sure everything joins up properly.

What you’ll be doing

• Working across multiple teams and products to keep delivery aligned
• Supporting and shaping initiatives that span different systems and domains
• Mapping processes, systems and data flows so everyone understands the bigger picture
• Facilitating conversations between technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Helping define what should be built and why — not just how
• Keeping things pragmatic — balancing long-term thinking with real delivery

What they’re looking for

This is where it gets interesting.

There’s no “perfect” background — but the strongest candidates tend to come from:

• Senior / Lead Technical Business Analyst
• Technical BA stepping into a broader, more strategic role
• Product or Delivery professionals with strong systems understanding

You’ll likely have:

• Experience working in a tech-led environment (SaaS, eCommerce, logistics, platforms)
• Strong understanding of how systems, integrations and data flows work
• The ability to operate across multiple teams and stakeholders
• Confidence to challenge, influence and ask the right questions
• A natural ability to simplify complexity and bring clarity

Most importantly…

You’re someone who sees the bigger picture, not just your lane.

What you won’t be doing

• Writing low-level technical designs
• Acting as a pure Solution Architect
• Living in RAID logs, Gantt charts or status reports

This is about impact, alignment and momentum — not process for the sake of it.

Why it’s worth your time

• Up to £75k salary + 10% bonus (consistently paid)
• 10% employer pension contribution – genuinely strong
• 35-hour working week – proper work-life balance
• 1 full day per month dedicated to your development (protected, not lip service)
• Hybrid working with a collaborative, grown-up environment
• A chance to step into a role where you’ll genuinely shape how things are done

Final thought

Indirect Buyer - Automotive Manufacturing
Midlands (multi-site responsibility across three plants)
£50,000 (up to £55k if you’re exceptional) + excellent benefits

Most buying jobs are predictable. This one isn’t.

One day you’re negotiating a supplier on forklift tyres, the next you’re locking in a multi-million-pound site-services deal across multiple plants. It’s fast, it’s varied, it’s challenging, but nobody breathes down your neck, and you’re treated like an adult.

Day-to-day you’ll:

• Own the entire supply strategy for maintenance, repair, services and consumables

• Benchmark, run RFQs, negotiate contracts like a pro

• CIPS is advantageous; proven results are essential
• A track record of real savings and juggling multiple projects without dropping any
• Strong communication - you’ll talk to people on the shop floor and ops directors in the same hour across differing departments, so you’ll utilise your strong relationship building skills
• The drive to work independently but the sense to escalate when it matters

You’ll fit if you’re:

• Proactive, results driven and enjoy building meaningful relationships
• Brilliant at prioritising the 3 things that matter out of 20 on your plate
• Comfortable pushing back (politely but firmly) when needed
• Ambitious - you want the next step (senior MRO, category lead, logistics, development - it’s all possible here)

About the Organisation:

A large, high volume automotive manufacturing operation that forms part of a global tier one group. The site operates in a fast paced, quality critical environment where equipment uptime, supplier performance and cost control directly impact production and customer delivery.

This role offers the chance to work within a globally connected manufacturing business while having real ownership and visibility at site level. You will gain exposure to best practice processes, complex operations and a role that genuinely impacts performance.

The benefits package:

• £50k base (up to £55k if you’re exceptional)
• Significant employer pension contribution
• Electric car scheme via salary sacrifice
• Cycle-to-work scheme
• Discounted gym membership
• Option to buy/sell holiday
• Flexible start & finish times every day
• Up to x2 days a week work-from-home
• Genuine progression - promotion from within and there’s clear headroom

If you get a buzz from turning supplier chaos into hard cash savings and being trusted to just get on with it, send your CV and we’ll talk further.
