Operations Management Recruitment in Tipton

Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Tipton.

West Midlands

Operations leaders for Tipton

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

Operations employers across the West Midlands include automotive and component supply chains, national retail DCs, contract logistics providers and rail-linked operators. Each runs a different model, so we recruit to the operation rather than the title.

When few proven leaders are within reach of Tipton, we widen the search and consider relocation before recommending a compromise.

Proven general managers at sites such as the Golden Triangle parks at Hams Hall and Birch Coppice, the i54 and the M6/M42 distribution belt are usually approached directly.

Your brief

What to put in the brief

A permanent operations leader builds a management team, a culture and a record with the client. That value grows each year they stay.

Senior notice periods can be long, so we plan the start date from the first conversation.

A strong operations brief covers:

  • Service levels and key performance measures
  • The biggest problem the new leader must solve
  • Travel between sites and any relocation
  • Your interview process, including presentations
