The general managers and operations directors who turn Torquay sites around and keep them improving.
Every operations candidate we put forward has been screened on the P&L, the headcount and the results they delivered.
Operations across Devon & Cornwall are connected by the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. Leaders who understand that network plan capacity with fewer surprises.
When few proven leaders are within reach of Torquay, we widen the search and consider relocation before recommending a compromise.
Operations leadership roles across Devon & Cornwall are spread across sites such as the A30 and A38 trunk corridors and the Exeter distribution parks.
Permanent operations leadership, from site operations managers to operations directors.
We ask candidates about the budget, margin and costs they have owned before anything else.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel or manufacturing: we match leaders to the model they have run.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Torquay 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.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
A short list of leaders, each with notes on scale, results and leadership style.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
For Torquay operations under pressure, the right permanent leader is the difference between firefighting and planning.
Many operations directors began as shift or site managers. We recruit at every step of that path.
