Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Keynsham.
Permanent leadership hires should leave a site stronger, safer and more profitable.
Across the South West, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the Avonmouth and Severnside parks, the M4/M5 junction and the distribution sites along the M5. We search for leaders who already know that market.
Many operations roles cover more than one site. We check how much travel each candidate is ready for before they reach the shortlist.
The strongest operations candidates across the South West are usually already leading operations for businesses such as port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs.
The people who own the service, the costs and the team.
For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
Senior searches are run confidentially, whether you are replacing a leader or planning ahead.
Indicative permanent salaries in Keynsham run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
An offer set at the market saves a second round of negotiation. We give you a current read on leadership pay before the search starts. 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.
A short list of leaders, each with notes on scale, results and leadership style.
An empty leadership seat is expensive: overtime climbs, clients lose patience and the team stops improving.
We describe the operation as it really runs, including the problems, so the new leader arrives ready for them.
