Leaders who hit the service levels and grow the margin, recruited for contract logistics, distribution and fulfilment operations in Walsall.
Most proven general managers are busy running a site. The search has to go to them.
Walsall sits in the West Midlands, at the heart of the UK 'Golden Triangle'. We recruit the general managers and operations directors who lead those operations.
Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing operations each need a different kind of leader.
With the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections serving the region, operations leaders across the West Midlands often oversee sites that run national as well as regional work.
The people who own the service, the costs and the team.
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.
For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Walsall run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
Senior candidates compare the whole package: bonus, car allowance, pension, holiday and the authority the role carries. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
P&L, headcount, service levels, safety record and right to work checked before the first interview.
A permanent operations leader builds a management team, a culture and a record with the client. That value grows each year they stay.
We find out what made each candidate leave their last role, because that tells us whether yours will keep them.
