Leaders who hit the service levels and grow the margin, recruited for contract logistics, distribution and fulfilment operations in Pontypool.
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 Wales, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the Bridgend and Llanelli manufacturing estates. We search for leaders who already know that market.
Mobilising a new contract? We can recruit the general manager first and build the leadership team around them.
The strongest operations candidates across Wales are usually already leading operations for businesses such as manufacturing and automotive supply chains, port logistics, retail DCs and national 3PLs.
Operations roles for contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
We ask how candidates built their management teams and what happened to staff turnover on their watch.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Pontypool run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
General managers of large or complex sites usually earn more than those running smaller operations, though local competition can move either figure. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.
An empty leadership seat is expensive: overtime climbs, clients lose patience and the team stops improving.
We find out what made each candidate leave their last role, because that tells us whether yours will keep them.
