London & the South East

Enfield operations management recruitment

Operations leaders are judged on service, cost, safety and the people who choose to stay. We recruit leaders who can show all four.

Across London & the South East, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the Heathrow airfreight belt, Park Royal, Enfield and the Thames Gateway. 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 London & the South East follows e-commerce and grocery fulfilment operations, parcel and last-mile carriers, airfreight forwarders and retail distribution centres.

How it works

Three stages to a hire

The brief

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

Confidential approach

Proven leaders are approached discreetly, with the facts that would make a move worth considering.

Referencing

We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.

Your brief

Details that sharpen the search

Frequent changes at the top of a site show up in turnover, safety and service levels. Continuity steadies all three.

Operations leaders who leave early often cite unrealistic targets, little investment or a head office that interferes. We raise all three first.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • Turnover or budget under the role's control
  • The biggest problem the new leader must solve
  • Who the role reports to
  • Your interview process, including presentations
