Hiring a general manager in Ramsgate? We look at the P&L they have run and the teams they have built before anything else.
Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.
Operations across the South East are connected by the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover. Leaders who understand that network plan capacity with fewer surprises.
Many operations roles cover more than one site. We check how much travel each candidate is ready for before they reach the shortlist.
Across the South East, operations and general managers are hired by grocery and retail DCs, Channel-port and customs operations, FMCG supply chains and national 3PLs.
The people who own the service, the costs and the team.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.
For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Ramsgate 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.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
A short list of leaders, each with notes on scale, results and leadership style.
We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.
A leader who understands the site's history makes better calls on people, layout and investment.
Many operations directors began as shift or site managers. We recruit at every step of that path.
