Permanent warehouse and distribution recruitment across Devon & Cornwall, from shift supervisors to general managers.
Distribution sites run on routine and pressure in equal measure. We recruit people who handle both.
Warehouse employers across Devon & Cornwall include chilled and ambient food distribution, marine services, aggregates and china clay logistics and independent hauliers. Each runs a different operation, so we recruit to the site rather than the job title.
When the Barnstaple market is thin for warehouse talent, we widen the search along the commute and give you an honest view of the likely shortlist.
Experienced supervisors at sites such as Falmouth docks and the far-west distribution depots rarely need to look for work, so we approach them directly.
From team leaders to site and operations managers.
We benchmark salary, shift allowance and bonus against the local market before the role goes out.
A short list of people who fit the site, each with notes on scale, systems and results.
For a new site or contract we can recruit the whole team, with start dates planned around go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Barnstaple run from around £28k for shift supervisors up to £55k+ for site and operations managers.
A clear, competitive offer shortens the search. We give you a current read on pay for the role before it goes live. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Volumes, systems, shift pattern, headcount and the problem the new leader needs to solve.
We arrange interviews and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We keep in touch through the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.
Interim cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when the site needs someone to own the results.
When a role is proving hard to fill, we work out whether the cause is the shift, the salary or the site. Then we say which.
A strong warehouse brief covers:
