North West

Permanent operations directors for Ormskirk

We look for leaders who have run an operation of your size, type and complexity.

Ormskirk draws on the North West's deep distribution, port and fulfilment labour market. Across the North West, operations leaders are needed at sites such as the Trafford Park and Salford estates and the Manchester Ship Canal.

Many operations roles cover more than one site. We check how much travel each candidate is ready for before they reach the shortlist.

The strongest operations candidates across the North West are usually already leading operations for businesses such as port and intermodal operators, chilled and grocery distribution, e-commerce fulfilment and manufacturing logistics.

Positions we place

From site leaders to operations directors

Operations roles for contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing.

What sets the desk apart

An operations desk, not a generalist agency

Safety leadership

Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.

Discreet searches

Senior searches are run confidentially, whether you are replacing a leader or planning ahead.

Leadership teams for mobilisations

For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.

What the market pays

What operations leaders earn in Ormskirk

Indicative permanent salaries in Ormskirk 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.

How it works

What happens after you brief us

The brief

Your brief

What we ask at the start

For Ormskirk operations under pressure, the right permanent leader is the difference between firefighting and planning.

When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • Turnover or budget under the role's control
  • Headcount and the management team structure
  • Salary, bonus and car allowance
  • Travel between sites and any relocation
