Warehouse Recruitment in Hackney

Hiring a warehouse manager in Hackney? We map the market, approach people who are not looking and send a shortlist worth meeting.

London & the South East

Distribution centre hiring across Hackney

Every warehouse candidate we put forward is screened on the sites they have run and the results they delivered.

Across London & the South East, much of the warehouse work sits at sites such as London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt. We search for leaders who already know that market.

When the Hackney market is thin for warehouse talent, we widen the search along the commute and give you an honest view of the likely shortlist.

With the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury serving the region, site managers across London & the South East can be drawn from a wide commute.

The roles we cover

Permanent roles on the warehouse desk

Warehouse roles for every kind of operation: ambient, chilled, e-commerce and returns.

Why a specialist warehouse desk

Built around site performance

Site results first

We ask candidates what they improved on their last site before we ask about their notice period.

A shortlist, not a pile of CVs

A short list of people who fit the site, each with notes on scale, systems and results.

Leadership teams for new sites

For a new site or contract we can recruit the whole team, with start dates planned around go-live.

Salaries in the area

What warehouse leaders earn in Hackney

How it works

Our recruitment process

The shortlist

A short list with notes on each candidate's scale, systems and results.

Site visits and interviews

We arrange interviews and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.

Settling in

We keep in touch through the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.

Your brief

Your hiring brief

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

Warehouse managers who leave early often cite the hours, the commute or the gap between the advert and the reality. We raise all three first.

A strong warehouse brief covers:

  • Daily volumes and peak volumes
  • The WMS and any automation on site
  • Headcount, including agency labour at peak
  • The key performance measures for the role
