Warehouse Recruitment in Ely

The managers and supervisors who keep Ely distribution sites safe, accurate and on time.

East of England

Recruiting warehouse managers in Ely

Permanent warehouse hires should improve the site, not just keep it ticking over.

Distribution sites across the East of England are served by the A14, M11, A1(M) and A12, the Port of Felixstowe and London Stansted Airport. Good managers weigh the commute and the shift as carefully as the salary.

A warehouse offer competes with every other site within reach. We help set salary, shift allowance and bonus so it lands first time.

Warehouse leadership roles across the East of England are spread across sites such as the Haven ports and the A14 corridor parks.

Your brief

Before we start searching

Warehouses run best with stable leadership. Frequent changes at the top show up in accuracy, safety and staff turnover.

A realistic job description helps retention. We describe the site as it runs on a normal week, not the best one.

A strong warehouse brief covers:

  • Daily volumes and peak volumes
  • The shift pattern and how the team is structured
  • Headcount, including agency labour at peak
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
