Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Kirkcaldy.
Operations leaders are judged on service, cost, safety and the people who choose to stay. We recruit leaders who can show all four.
Sites such as the A9 and A90 corridors and the Angus food-processing belt vary in scale and pace. We match leaders to the operation they will actually be running.
Senior operations offers compete with every major operator in reach. We help set salary, bonus and car allowance so the offer lands.
With the A90, M90 and A9, the Port of Dundee and Rosyth serving the region, operations leaders across Tayside & Fife often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.
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 ask how candidates built their management teams and what happened to staff turnover on their watch.
Senior searches are run confidentially, whether you are replacing a leader or planning ahead.
