West Wales

Operations leaders for Newtown

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.

Across West Wales, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the A487 coastal corridor and the mid-Wales agri-food 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.

With the A40, the A487, the A48 and the ports at Milford Haven, Pembroke Dock and Fishguard serving the region, operations leaders across West Wales often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.

How it works

How a leadership search runs

The brief

The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.

Market mapping

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

Offer and onboarding

We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.

Your brief

What to put in the brief

Frequent changes at the top of a site show up in turnover, safety and service levels. Continuity steadies all three.

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

A strong operations brief covers:

  • The client or contract, if it is a 3PL operation
  • Service levels and key performance measures
  • Salary, bonus and car allowance
  • Your interview process, including presentations
