Hiring operations leaders for good in Hebden Bridge

Most proven general managers are busy running a site. The search has to go to them.

Hebden Bridge sits in Yorkshire's M62 logistics belt — a magnet for retail and e-commerce distribution serving the whole of the North of England. We recruit the general managers and operations directors who lead those operations.

We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.

Across Yorkshire, operations and general managers are hired by retail and grocery distribution, rail-linked intermodal operators, manufacturing supply chains and regional 3PLs.

Your brief

The brief that works

An empty leadership seat is expensive: overtime climbs, clients lose patience and the team stops improving.

When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • Turnover or budget under the role's control
  • Headcount and the management team structure
  • The biggest problem the new leader must solve
  • Who the role reports to
