Permanent operations leadership recruitment across Devon & Cornwall.
Permanent leadership hires should leave a site stronger, safer and more profitable.
Operations employers across Devon & Cornwall include food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers. Each runs a different model, so we recruit to the operation rather than the title.
Senior operations offers compete with every major operator in reach. We help set salary, bonus and car allowance so the offer lands.
Sites such as the A30 and A38 trunk corridors and the Exeter distribution parks compete for the same proven leaders, which keeps senior pay competitive.
From operations managers to directors of operations.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel or manufacturing: we match leaders to the model they have run.
We benchmark salary, bonus, car allowance and pension against comparable leadership roles before the search.
Indicative permanent salaries in Camborne run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
General managers of large or complex sites usually earn more than those running smaller operations, though local competition can move either figure. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Proven leaders are approached discreetly, with the facts that would make a move worth considering.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.
For Camborne operations under pressure, the right permanent leader is the difference between firefighting and planning.
When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.
