Technical Buyer

Motorsport | Advanced Engineering | Precision Manufacturing

Oxfordshire, Onsite, No Sponsorship for overseas candidates

Strong starting salary plus benefits package

UK | High-Performance Environment | Fast Paced | Engineering-Led Procurement

Some buyers place orders.

Others keep race programmes alive.

We're looking for a technically credible, commercially sharp Technical Buyer who understands the difference between "on order" and "on the car."

This is not a traditional procurement role hidden behind spreadsheets and approval chains. You'll sit at the heart of a high-performance engineering environment, working closely with engineers, programme teams and specialist suppliers to source complex machined and metallic components where quality, timing and technical accuracy are absolutely critical.

If you can read engineering drawings as comfortably as commercial terms, challenge suppliers intelligently, and thrive when priorities shift at pace, this could be your next move.

 

What You'll Be Doing

  • Managing technically complex machining and metallic components from sourcing through to delivery and use.
  • Reading and interpreting engineering drawings, specifications and technical requirements with confidence.
  • Holding credible conversations with engineers and suppliers around manufacturability, lead times, technical risk and cost.
  • Applying your understanding of machining and manufacturing processes to make smart sourcing decisions.
  • Identifying supply chain, technical or quality risks early and acting before they become programme issues.
  • Ensuring components arrive on time, to specification and fit for purpose in a demanding delivery-focused environment.
  • Maintaining accurate purchasing and ERP data including pricing, lead times and invoice resolution.
  • Making sound judgement calls under pressure, often with incomplete information and changing priorities.

What We're Looking For

We want someone who combines engineering understanding with procurement instinct.

You'll Ideally Have:

  • Experience in technical purchasing within Motorsport or advanced engineering
  • Strong knowledge of machining and metallic component procurement
  • Confidence reading engineering drawings and specifications
  • Understanding of manufacturing processes and engineering constraints
  • Experience using ERP/purchasing systems in a fast-paced technical environment
  • Commercial awareness and exposure to should-cost analysis
  • Degree qualification in a relevant discipline
  • CIPS qualification advantageous but not essential
  • IFS ERP knowledge and strong Excel skills beneficial

The Kind of Person Who'll Succeed Here

You are:

  • Calm under pressure
  • Technically credible
  • Commercially aware
  • Proactive and analytical
  • Comfortable making decisions quickly
  • Someone who spots problems before they become expensive

You'll be equally comfortable working with:

  • Engineers
  • Suppliers
  • Procurement leadership
  • Manufacturing teams

...and you'll know how to keep momentum when deadlines tighten and priorities change overnight.

What's In It For You?

  • Competitive salary with genuine development opportunities
  • 25 days holiday plus the option to buy up to 15 more
  • Enhanced family-friendly policies
  • Ongoing training and professional development
  • Subsidised onsite restaurant
  • Car salary sacrifice scheme
  • Pension salary sacrifice scheme
  • CycleScheme
  • Exercise classes and well-being support
  • Paid volunteering time
  • Social events throughout the year
  • Exclusive company discounts
  • Life assurance

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to join a business where engineering excellence, pace and teamwork genuinely matter.

You won't just be raising purchase orders.

You'll be influencing delivery, supporting cutting-edge engineering programmes and working in an environment where every component counts.

If you enjoy technical challenge, autonomy and being part of a high-performance culture, we'd love to hear from you.
