Permanent operations leadership recruitment across Tayside & Fife.
The right operations leader changes a site's culture in months. The wrong one does it in weeks.
Operations employers across Tayside & Fife include food and drink manufacturing, soft-fruit and agri-food distribution, life sciences and regional 3PLs. Each runs a different model, so we recruit to the operation rather than the title.
We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.
