Operations management recruitment for Glastonbury operators who need a leader to steady a site, win back a client or open a new one.
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.
Operations vacancies across the South West come from food and drink manufacturers, aerospace and defence supply chains, retail distribution and regional hauliers. Each needs leaders who can hold service levels and margin at once.
We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.
Proven general managers at sites such as Avonmouth, Severnside and the M5 corridor running down to the West Country are usually approached directly.
Permanent operations roles matched to site size, contract type and culture.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel or manufacturing: we match leaders to the model they have run.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Glastonbury run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
Senior candidates compare the whole package: bonus, car allowance, pension, holiday and the authority the role carries. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
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.
A leader who understands the site's history makes better calls on people, layout and investment.
When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.
