Operations Management Recruitment in Crediton

Operations management recruitment for Crediton operators who need a leader to steady a site, win back a client or open a new one.

Devon & Cornwall

General manager hiring across Crediton

Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.

Operations across Devon & Cornwall are connected by the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. Leaders who understand that network plan capacity with fewer surprises.

A general manager who leaves in the first year unsettles the team, the client and the numbers at the same time.

Across Devon & Cornwall, operations and general managers are hired by chilled and ambient food distribution, marine services, aggregates and china clay logistics and independent hauliers.

The roles we cover

Permanent roles on the operations desk

The people who own the service, the costs and the team.

Why a specialist desk

Built around contracts and people

Client management

For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.

Pay that reflects the role

We benchmark salary, bonus, car allowance and pension against comparable leadership roles before the search.

Safety leadership

Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
