Leaders who hit the service levels and grow the margin, recruited for contract logistics, distribution and fulfilment operations in Stirling.
Permanent leadership hires should leave a site stronger, safer and more profitable.
Across Scotland, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the M8 corridor parks at Eurocentral, Bellshill and Newhouse. We search for leaders who already know that market.
Many operations roles cover more than one site. We check how much travel each candidate is ready for before they reach the shortlist.
With the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen serving the region, operations leaders across Scotland often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.
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.
Senior searches are run confidentially, whether you are replacing a leader or planning ahead.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Stirling 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.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
Proven leaders are approached discreetly, with the facts that would make a move worth considering.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
Frequent changes at the top of a site show up in turnover, safety and service levels. Continuity steadies all three.
When a leadership role is hard to fill, we identify whether the package, the location or the brief is the obstacle and say so.
