We are recruiting for an experienced Purchasing Manager to join an established manufacturing business based in the Harlow area.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Purchasing Manager who wants to have genuine influence over how a purchasing function operates and develop it into a more structured and strategic operation.

This is a hands-on management role with responsibility for purchasing activity across two UK manufacturing sites. The successful candidate will be closely involved in the day-to-day purchasing operation, with the opportunity to develop the function and take on a more strategic role over time.

The role will suit an experienced purchasing professional who enjoys being involved in the detail but also has the commercial awareness and strategic mindset to improve processes, supplier performance and purchasing efficiency.

🎂 TWO YEARS OF THE HIRE PLACE! 🎂

Today marks The Hire Place’s second birthday — two years of the recruitment roller coaster!

And apparently, we’ve just discovered something we really should have known sooner…

LinkedIn doesn't seem to be a fan of Cuthbert’s traditional attire. 😂

Being a cherub, Cuthbert has never really seen the need for clothes. He’s spent his entire existence happily wandering around with nothing but his wings, bow and an unhealthy confidence in his own appearance.

Unfortunately, LinkedIn has other ideas.

So, despite Cuthbert's considerable objections, we're going to have to put some clothes on him. 👔

Apparently, being a mythical winged cupid is no defence against the LinkedIn algorithm.

Cuthbert isn't impressed.

We're not sure what he'll wear yet. We're fairly certain he won't be happy about it.

But one thing is certain…

The Hire Place is two years old, Cuthbert is here to stay, and apparently, he's going to have to start wearing trousers. 😂

Thank you to every client, candidate, contact, supporter and friend who's helped us get to this point.

Here's to Year 3 — and whatever on earth Cuthbert decides to get himself into next.

Please welcome our new Marketing Director.

Cuthbert.

He's joined us from "The Higher Place" and will be taking charge of the marketing at The Hire Place.

His credentials?

🏹 Professional matchmaker
😇 Heavenly connections
🎯 Excellent at bringing the right people together
🍺 Northern
🙈 Questionable dress code
🍰 Could probably lay off the pies

Fortunately, his main skill is matchmaking — which is something we know a little bit about ourselves.

So we're giving him a chance.

Welcome to The Hire Place, Cuthbert.

Try not to c**k it up. 😂
