Whitchurch operations management recruitment

Logistics around Whitchurch is powered by the Golden Triangle's big-shed distribution and a deep automotive and manufacturing supply chain. Across the West Midlands, operations leaders are needed at sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, the i54 and the rail-freight terminals around Birmingham.

Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel networks and manufacturing operations each need a different kind of leader.

Across the West Midlands, operations and general managers are hired by national 3PLs, automotive and manufacturing supply chains and large retail distribution centres.
