From site operations managers to regional directors, we find permanent leaders in Honiton with results they can explain.
Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.
Operations vacancies across Devon & Cornwall come from food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers. Each needs leaders who can hold service levels and margin at once.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing operations each need a different kind of leader.
Sites such as the A30 and A38 trunk corridors and the Exeter distribution parks compete for the same proven leaders, which keeps senior pay competitive.
Permanent operations leadership, from site operations managers to operations directors.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel or manufacturing: we match leaders to the model they have run.
We benchmark salary, bonus, car allowance and pension against comparable leadership roles before the search.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Honiton run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
Bonus structures matter at this level. We check how each candidate's current bonus is calculated so the comparison is fair. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
Proven leaders are approached discreetly, with the facts that would make a move worth considering.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.
We describe the operation as it really runs, including the problems, so the new leader arrives ready for them.
