Leaders who hit the service levels and grow the margin, recruited for contract logistics, distribution and fulfilment operations in Oswestry.
The right operations leader changes a site's culture in months. The wrong one does it in weeks.
Across the West Midlands, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the Golden Triangle parks at Hams Hall and Birch Coppice, the i54 and the M6/M42 distribution belt. We search for leaders who already know that market.
We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.
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 how candidates built their management teams and what happened to staff turnover on their watch.
Senior searches are run confidentially, whether you are replacing a leader or planning ahead.
For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Oswestry run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
An offer set at the market saves a second round of negotiation. We give you a current read on leadership pay before the search starts. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
For Oswestry operations under pressure, the right permanent leader is the difference between firefighting and planning.
Many operations directors began as shift or site managers. We recruit at every step of that path.
