Operations Management Recruitment in Marlow

Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Marlow.

South East

Operations leaders for Marlow

Operations leaders are judged on service, cost, safety and the people who choose to stay. We recruit leaders who can show all four.

Across the South East, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the parks along the M25, M20 and M23 and the Solent ports. 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.

The strongest operations candidates across the South East are usually already leading operations for businesses such as retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.

Client management

For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.

Beyond the start date

We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.

Your brief

What to put in the brief

A permanent operations leader builds a management team, a culture and a record with the client. That value grows each year they stay.

We find out what made each candidate leave their last role, because that tells us whether yours will keep them.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • The operation, its sites and its sector
  • The client or contract, if it is a 3PL operation
  • Salary, bonus and car allowance
  • Your interview process, including presentations
