Operations management recruitment for Warwick operators who need a leader to steady a site, win back a client or open a new one.
The right operations leader changes a site's culture in months. The wrong one does it in weeks.
Across the West Midlands, many leadership vacancies sit at sites such as the Golden Triangle parks at Hams Hall and Birch Coppice, the i54 and the M6/M42 distribution belt. We search for leaders who already know that market.
Mobilising a new contract? We can recruit the general manager first and build the leadership team around them.
The strongest operations candidates across the West Midlands are usually already leading operations for businesses such as national 3PLs, automotive and manufacturing supply chains and large retail distribution centres.
Operations roles for contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing.
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.
We stay in touch through the first months as the new leader takes charge.
Indicative permanent salaries in Warwick 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.
We map the leaders running comparable operations within a realistic commute or relocation.
We arrange interviews, presentations and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We ask referees about results, leadership and how the candidate handled pressure.
Interim leaders can steady a site for a few months. A permanent hire owns the results for the long term.
Strong leaders value the authority to make decisions, investment in the site and a board that keeps its promises.
