Permanent warehouse and distribution recruitment across the East Midlands, from shift supervisors to general managers.
Distribution sites run on routine and pressure in equal measure. We recruit people who handle both.
Distribution sites across the East Midlands are served by the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. Good managers weigh the commute and the shift as carefully as the salary.
Ambient, chilled, e-commerce and returns operations each need a different kind of leader. We recruit each one differently.
Large sites such as the Golden Triangle parks at DIRFT, Magna Park and Hams Hall often recruit at the same time, which pushes up the price of experienced managers.
From team leaders to site and operations managers.
We ask candidates what they improved on their last site before we ask about their notice period.
Most strong warehouse managers are not looking. We approach them with the details that would make them move.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months in the job, while a new manager settles in.
Indicative permanent salaries in Buxton run from around £28k for shift supervisors up to £55k+ for site and operations managers.
Base salary is only part of the offer. Candidates compare shift allowance, bonus, car allowance and the hours they will actually work. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Volumes, systems, shift pattern, headcount and the problem the new leader needs to solve.
Site experience, results, safety approach and right to work checked, then a conversation about your operation.
We arrange interviews and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
Warehouses run best with stable leadership. Frequent changes at the top show up in accuracy, safety and staff turnover.
Notice periods for senior warehouse roles can be long, so we plan the timeline from the first call.
