Operations Management Recruitment in March

We recruit the leaders who own the P&L, the contract and the people for March and the East of England.

Norfolk & the Fens

Recruiting operations managers in March

A leader who can run a stable site is not always the one to fix a failing contract. We find out which one you need first.

Sites such as King's Lynn and the Fenland agri-food and cold-storage estates vary in scale and pace. We match leaders to the operation they will actually be running.

Mobilising a new contract? We can recruit the general manager first and build the leadership team around them.

Across Norfolk & the Fens, operations and general managers are hired by agri-food and vegetable processing, cold storage, offshore wind and southern North Sea energy logistics and regional 3PLs.

What operations leaders earn

What operations leaders earn in March

How it works

From brief to start date

Market mapping

We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.

Leadership screen

P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.

Referencing

We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.

Your brief

Before we start searching

Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.

Senior notice periods can be long, so we plan the start date from the first conversation.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • Headcount and the management team structure
  • The client or contract, if it is a 3PL operation
  • Service levels and key performance measures
  • Your interview process, including presentations
