From site operations managers to regional directors, we find permanent leaders in Castleford with results they can explain.
A leader who can run a stable site is not always the one to fix a failing contract. We find out which one you need first.
Sites such as the M62 corridor parks and the iPort rail terminal at Doncaster vary in scale and pace. We match leaders to the operation they will actually be running.
When few proven leaders are within reach of Castleford, we widen the search and consider relocation before recommending a compromise.
Across Yorkshire, operations and general managers are hired by retail and online fulfilment operations, regional 3PLs, manufacturing distribution and Humber port logistics.

Indicative permanent salaries in Castleford run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
Operations pay in Yorkshire & the Humber moves with the size of the operation, the number of sites and the contract: multi-site and director roles earn the most. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.
When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.
