The general managers and operations directors who turn Ebbw Vale sites around and keep them improving.
Permanent leadership hires should leave a site stronger, safer and more profitable.
Across Wales, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the M4 and A55 corridors, the South Wales ports and the North Wales manufacturing parks. We search for leaders who already know that market.
We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.
Leadership demand across Wales follows manufacturing and automotive supply chains, port logistics, retail DCs and national 3PLs.
Permanent operations leadership, from site operations managers to operations directors.
We ask how candidates built their management teams and what happened to staff turnover on their watch.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Ebbw Vale 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.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.
Operations leaders who leave early often cite unrealistic targets, little investment or a head office that interferes. We raise all three first.
