Leaders who hit the service levels and grow the margin, recruited for contract logistics, distribution and fulfilment operations in Market Drayton.
Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.
Market Drayton sits in the West Midlands, at the heart of the UK 'Golden Triangle'. Across the West Midlands, operations leaders are needed at sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, the i54 and the rail-freight terminals around Birmingham.
A general manager who leaves in the first year unsettles the team, the client and the numbers at the same time.
With the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections serving the region, operations leaders across the West Midlands often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.
The people who own the service, the costs and the team.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel or manufacturing: we match leaders to the model they have run.
We ask how candidates built their management teams and what happened to staff turnover on their watch.
Indicative permanent salaries in Market Drayton run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
We compare leadership offers with current roles of similar size and scope rather than old survey data. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
A short list of leaders, each with notes on scale, results and leadership style.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
A permanent operations leader builds a management team, a culture and a record with the client. That value grows each year they stay.
Strong leaders value the authority to make decisions, investment in the site and a board that keeps its promises.
