Norfolk & the Fens

Recruiting warehouse managers in Dereham

Distribution sites run on routine and pressure in equal measure. We recruit people who handle both.

Dereham sits in Norfolk and the Fens, served by the A11 and A47 rather than the A14 and Felixstowe corridor that dominates Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. Across Norfolk & the Fens, warehouse leaders are in demand at sites such as Great Yarmouth port and the southern North Sea energy base.

Night shifts, weekend cover and continental patterns suit different people. The shift pattern is one of the first things we ask about.

With the A11, the A47, the A17 and the ports at Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn serving the region, site managers across Norfolk & the Fens can be drawn from a wide commute.

Volumes, systems, shift pattern, headcount and the problem the new leader needs to solve.

We map the sites within a realistic commute and the people running them.

Your brief

Before we start searching

A leader who knows the site's history makes better decisions about people, layout and process.

Team leaders are often promoted from the floor. We recruit for both routes into management.

A strong warehouse brief covers:

  • The site, its size and what it stores
  • The WMS and any automation on site
  • Headcount, including agency labour at peak
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
