Operations management recruitment for Gosport operators who need a leader to steady a site, win back a client or open a new one.
Permanent leadership hires should leave a site stronger, safer and more profitable.
Operations across the South East are connected by the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover. Leaders who understand that network plan capacity with fewer surprises.
We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.
The strongest operations candidates across the South East are usually already leading operations for businesses such as retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.
Operations roles for contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
We benchmark salary, bonus, car allowance and pension against comparable leadership roles before the search.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
Indicative permanent salaries in Gosport run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
If your offer sits below what comparable leaders earn, we tell you before any interviews. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
A short list of leaders, each with notes on scale, results and leadership style.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
For Gosport operations under pressure, the right permanent leader is the difference between firefighting and planning.
Operations leaders who leave early often cite unrealistic targets, little investment or a head office that interferes. We raise all three first.
