Peak exposes weak leadership fast. We recruit people who have planned for it and delivered through it.

Knottingley sits in Yorkshire's M62 logistics belt — a magnet for retail and e-commerce distribution serving the whole of the North of England. Across Yorkshire, fulfilment leaders are needed at sites such as the M62/M1 corridor, iPort Doncaster, Wakefield Europort and the Aire Valley.

A fulfilment offer competes with every warehouse and parcel operator in reach. We help set pay, shift allowance and bonus so it lands.

The strongest fulfilment candidates across Yorkshire are usually already running operations for businesses such as retail and e-commerce DCs, regional 3PLs, manufacturing and port logistics.

The roles we cover

Permanent roles on the fulfilment desk

The people who run picking, packing, despatch and returns.

Why a specialist desk

Built around accuracy and speed

Pay that competes

We benchmark salary, shift allowance and bonus against the fulfilment market before the role is advertised.

Rotas settled early

Nights, weekends and peak overtime are agreed before interviews, so nobody is surprised in November.

Support after the start

We keep in touch through the first months, including the new leader's first peak.

Salaries in the area

How it works

Our recruitment process

Screening

Volumes, accuracy, peak record, systems and right to work checked before the first interview.

Site visits

We arrange interviews and site tours, then brief each candidate so the visit is useful.

Offer and notice

We help agree pay and a start date, planning around both sites' peak periods.

Your brief

Your hiring brief

Interim managers can steady one peak. A permanent hire improves every one after it.

Fulfilment leaders who leave early often cite relentless peaks, weak systems or targets set without them. We raise all three first.

A strong fulfilment brief covers:

  • The WMS and any automation
  • Carrier cut-offs and collection times
  • Shift pattern and team structure
  • Seasonal headcount at peak
