Operations leaders for Stocksbridge

Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.

Stocksbridge draws on Yorkshire's deep distribution and port-logistics labour market, strung along the M62 and M1. Across Yorkshire, operations leaders are needed at sites such as iPort Doncaster, Wakefield Europort and the distribution parks along the M62 and M1.

We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.

The strongest operations candidates across Yorkshire are usually already leading operations for businesses such as retail and grocery distribution, rail-linked intermodal operators, manufacturing supply chains and regional 3PLs.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • The operation, its sites and its sector
  • The client or contract, if it is a 3PL operation
  • Who the role reports to
  • Travel between sites and any relocation
