The general managers and operations directors who turn Trowbridge sites around and keep them improving.
We look for leaders who have run an operation of your size, type and complexity.
Operations vacancies across the South West come from grocery and retail distribution, port and import logistics, aerospace supply chains and national 3PLs. Each needs leaders who can hold service levels and margin at once.
Many operations roles cover more than one site. We check how much travel each candidate is ready for before they reach the shortlist.
Operations leadership roles across the South West are spread across sites such as the Avonmouth and Severnside estates.
Permanent operations leadership, from site operations managers to operations directors.
For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
Senior searches are run confidentially, whether you are replacing a leader or planning ahead.
Indicative permanent salaries in Trowbridge run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
We compare leadership offers with current roles of similar size and scope rather than old survey data. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.
A leader who understands the site's history makes better calls on people, layout and investment.
Operations leaders who leave early often cite unrealistic targets, little investment or a head office that interferes. We raise all three first.
