Recruiting warehouse managers in Lockerbie

Warehouse leadership is judged on the floor: pick rates, accuracy, safety and the people who turn up tomorrow.

Warehouse vacancies across southern Scotland come from cross-border hauliers, food and drink manufacturers, textiles and timber supply chains. Each needs leaders who can hold standards through peak.

Opening a new site or taking on a new contract? We can recruit a full leadership team, from general manager to team leaders.

With the A74(M), the M74, the A7, the A1 and the Cairnryan ferry terminals serving the region, site managers across southern Scotland can be drawn from a wide commute.

What Lockerbie sites get

Health and safety on the list

Safety record and approach are part of every warehouse screen, not an afterthought at interview.

How it works

From brief to start date

Market mapping

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

Screening

Site experience, results, safety approach and right to work checked, then a conversation about your operation.

Settling in

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

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.

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

Warehouse FAQs

Common questions

How long does a warehouse manager search take?

It depends on seniority, shift pattern and how competitive the local market is. You get a realistic timeline in the first conversation.

Can you recruit night shift managers?

Yes. Tell us the shift pattern and the headcount on nights so we approach managers who want that work.

Can you recruit a leadership team for a new site?

Yes. We can recruit the general manager, shift managers and team leaders together, with start dates planned around go-live.

I run a warehouse. How do I find my next role?

Upload your CV and tell us the size of site, the systems and the shift pattern you want next. We contact you when a permanent role fits.

What makes a warehouse manager stay?

Realistic targets, a stable team, investment in the site and a fair package. We check all four before recommending a move.
