Leaders for ambient, chilled and e-commerce warehouses in and around Ilkeston, recruited onto your payroll.
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.
Opening a new site or taking on a new contract? We can recruit a full leadership team, from general manager to team leaders.
The strongest warehouse candidates across the East Midlands are usually already running sites such as DIRFT, Magna Park and the SEGRO and Prologis parks along the M1.
Permanent warehouse roles matched to site, shift and volume.
Volumes, headcount, systems and stock profile: we match leaders to sites like yours, not just to a job title.
Safety record and approach are part of every warehouse screen, not an afterthought at interview.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months in the job, while a new manager settles in.
Indicative permanent salaries in Ilkeston run from around £28k for shift supervisors up to £55k+ for site and operations managers.
Managers of large or automated sites usually earn more than those on smaller manual sites, but local competition can move either figure. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Volumes, systems, shift pattern, headcount and the problem the new leader needs to solve.
Candidates who are not looking are approached with the details that matter to them.
We keep in touch through the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.
Warehouses run best with stable leadership. Frequent changes at the top show up in accuracy, safety and staff turnover.
