We recruit the leaders who own the P&L, the contract and the people for Halifax and Yorkshire & the Humber.
Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.
Operations employers across Yorkshire include retail and grocery distribution, rail-linked intermodal operators, manufacturing supply chains and regional 3PLs. Each runs a different model, so we recruit to the operation rather than the title.
Many operations roles cover more than one site. We check how much travel each candidate is ready for before they reach the shortlist.
Operations leadership roles across Yorkshire are spread across sites such as the M62/M1 corridor, iPort Doncaster, Wakefield Europort and the Aire Valley.
Site, contract, regional and improvement leadership roles.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.
We benchmark salary, bonus, car allowance and pension against comparable leadership roles before the search.
Indicative permanent salaries in Halifax 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.
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.
We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.
Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.
We find out what made each candidate leave their last role, because that tells us whether yours will keep them.
