We recruit the leaders who own the P&L, the contract and the people for Stonehouse and the South West.
We look for leaders who have run an operation of your size, type and complexity.
From port handling to regional distribution, employers around Stonehouse compete for experienced permanent logistics people across the South West. Across the South West, operations leaders are needed at sites such as Avonmouth and Severnside, the M5 corridor and the Western Approach parks.
A general manager who leaves in the first year unsettles the team, the client and the numbers at the same time.
Leadership demand across the South West follows port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs.
Site, contract, regional and improvement leadership roles.
We ask how candidates built their management teams and what happened to staff turnover on their watch.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Stonehouse 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.
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.
