We recruit the leaders who own the P&L, the contract and the people for Larkhall and Scotland.
The right operations leader changes a site's culture in months. The wrong one does it in weeks.
Across Scotland, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as Eurocentral — one of the UK's largest rail-connected freight parks — Bellshill and the M8 distribution belt. We search for leaders who already know that market.
Senior operations offers compete with every major operator in reach. We help set salary, bonus and car allowance so the offer lands.
Leadership demand across Scotland follows whisky and food and drink distribution, retail and grocery DCs, port and intermodal operators and Scottish 3PLs.
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 stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Larkhall 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.
A short list of leaders, each with notes on scale, results and leadership style.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.
Many operations directors began as shift or site managers. We recruit at every step of that path.
