Hiring a fulfilment centre manager in Broadstairs? We check the order volumes, accuracy and peak plans they have delivered first.
Peak exposes weak leadership fast. We recruit people who have planned for it and delivered through it.
Fulfilment sites across the South East rely on the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover to reach their customers. Leaders who plan around carrier collection times protect the cut-off.
Fashion, grocery, health and beauty, electricals and returns operations behave differently. We recruit each kind of leader differently.
The strongest fulfilment candidates across the South East are usually already running operations for businesses such as retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.
The people who run picking, packing, despatch and returns.
We look for leaders who manage carrier collections and cut-offs as part of the job, not as a daily surprise.
For a new fulfilment centre or client launch we can recruit the leadership team together.
We keep in touch through the first months, including the new leader's first peak.
Indicative permanent salaries in Broadstairs run from around £28k for team leaders up to £60k+ for heads of fulfilment.
Heads of fulfilment earn well above shift managers. Large automated sites often pay more than smaller manual ones. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We approach strong candidates early, before peak makes a move impossible.
A short list with notes on each candidate's order profile, systems and peak results.
We stay in touch through the new leader's first peak.
Strong team leaders become shift managers and shift managers become site leaders. Hiring well builds that path.
We plan start dates around peak on both sides, so nobody has to leave mid-season.
