Job Description:
As Drinks Buyer, you will manage a Procurement Assistant, visit suppliers, and negotiate contracts for a business that recognizes and rewards excellence.
You will report into the Food and Drink Director for a business that provides quality drinks and delicious food.
This role will suit a strong negotiator who has a minimum of 4 years drinks buying experience in either the Branded Hospitality or Retail space.
Day to day, you will be responsible for creating and delivering the drinks category strategy by sub-category (e.g. beer, spirits, soft drinks, No and Low) while driving the performance of the category through range management, negotiating contracts, and managing suppliers.
My client prides themselves on their outstanding cask conditioned ales, delicious food, great wines, and excellent service. They work hard to ensure that they provide great surroundings and food and drink for all who walk through their doors. They value loyalty and offer a range of benefits to encourage employees to take a stake in the Company’s long-term success.
To be considered for this role, you will need proven experience of working with branded drink suppliers to generate value, negotiate tenders, and manage a supplier base. You will have sound commercial acumen with strong analytical, numerical, and forecasting skills along with strong stakeholder management and computer skills including Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
This is a hybrid role with a minimum of 2 days in the office each week (after settling in) and travel to suppliers as needed.
