The managers and supervisors who keep Folkestone distribution sites safe, accurate and on time.
Distribution sites run on routine and pressure in equal measure. We recruit people who handle both.
Sites such as the Dartford and Thames-side parks and the M20 route to the Channel run days, nights and continental shifts. We match managers to the pattern they will actually keep.
Night shifts, weekend cover and continental patterns suit different people. The shift pattern is one of the first things we ask about.
Across the South East, warehouse leaders are hired by retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.
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.
Safety record and approach are part of every warehouse screen, not an afterthought at interview.
For a new site or contract we can recruit the whole team, with start dates planned around go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Folkestone run from around £28k for shift supervisors up to £55k+ for site and operations managers.
Where an offer is likely to fall short of the local market, we tell you before the first interview is booked. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Site experience, results, safety approach and right to work checked, then a conversation about your operation.
A short list with notes on each candidate's scale, systems and results.
We arrange interviews and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
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.
