Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Warminster.
Operations leaders are judged on service, cost, safety and the people who choose to stay. We recruit leaders who can show all four.
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.
We ask candidates about the turnover, margin, headcount and service levels they have been responsible for, then about what they changed.
Proven general managers at sites such as the Avonmouth and Severnside estates are usually approached directly.
Operations roles for contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing.
For contract logistics roles we look for leaders who have kept and grown a client relationship, not just hit the service levels.
For a new contract or site we can recruit the general manager and the senior team, timed to go-live.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Warminster run from around £45k for operations managers up to £100k+ for operations directors.
Bonus structures matter at this level. We check how each candidate's current bonus is calculated so the comparison is fair. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
The operation, the P&L, the team, the client and the result the new leader must deliver.
Proven leaders are approached discreetly, with the facts that would make a move worth considering.
We help agree the package and stay in touch while the new leader takes charge.
Frequent changes at the top of a site show up in turnover, safety and service levels. Continuity steadies all three.
