We recruit the leaders who own the P&L, the contract and the people for Leyland and the North West.
We look for leaders who have run an operation of your size, type and complexity.
Sites such as Trafford Park — one of Europe's largest industrial estates — Omega Warrington and the Port of Liverpool vary in scale and pace. We match leaders to the operation they will actually be running.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing operations each need a different kind of leader.
Across the North West, operations and general managers are hired by port and intermodal operators, chilled and grocery distribution, e-commerce fulfilment and manufacturing logistics.
From operations managers to directors of operations.
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.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Leyland run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
Operations pay in the North West moves with the size of the operation, the number of sites and the contract: multi-site and director roles earn the most. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Proven leaders are approached discreetly, with the facts that would make a move worth considering.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
A leader who understands the site's history makes better calls on people, layout and investment.
When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.
