Permanent warehouse and distribution recruitment across Tyne & Wear, from shift supervisors to general managers.
Permanent warehouse hires should improve the site, not just keep it ticking over.
Warehouse vacancies across Tyne & Wear come from automotive and chemicals supply chains, port and bulk logistics, retail distribution and regional 3PLs. Each needs leaders who can hold standards through peak.
We ask candidates about the volumes, the WMS, the headcount and the shift pattern they have managed before we mention your vacancy.
Large sites such as the Port of Tyne, the A19 automotive corridor and the Team Valley trading estate often recruit at the same time, which pushes up the price of experienced managers.
The people who run the floor and the people who improve it.
Volumes, headcount, systems and stock profile: we match leaders to sites like yours, not just to a job title.
A short list of people who fit the site, each with notes on scale, systems and results.
For a new site or contract we can recruit the whole team, with start dates planned around go-live.
Indicative permanent salaries in Newcastle upon Tyne 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.
We map the sites within a realistic commute and the people running them.
Candidates who are not looking are approached with the details that matter to them.
We arrange interviews and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
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.
