Hiring a general manager in Callander? We look at the P&L they have run and the teams they have built before anything else.
The right operations leader changes a site's culture in months. The wrong one does it in weeks.
Sites such as the M74 and M9 corridors and the Clyde and Forth port estates vary in scale and pace. We match leaders to the operation they will actually be running.
Senior operations offers compete with every major operator in reach. We help set salary, bonus and car allowance so the offer lands.
With the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen serving the region, operations leaders across Scotland often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.

The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
