Devon & Cornwall

An operations recruitment desk for Torpoint

The right operations leader changes a site's culture in months. The wrong one does it in weeks.

Sites such as the Cornwall A30 corridor and the Pool, Redruth and St Austell estates vary in scale and pace. We match leaders to the operation they will actually be running.

Senior operations offers compete with every major operator in reach. We help set salary, bonus and car allowance so the offer lands.

Across Devon & Cornwall, operations and general managers are hired by food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers.
