Warehouse Recruitment in Newham

We recruit warehouse managers, shift managers and team leaders for Newham and London & the South East, screened on the sites they have actually run.

London & the South East

A warehouse recruitment desk for Newham

A new site manager changes the culture of a warehouse within weeks. Getting the hire right matters more than filling it fast.

Sites such as London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt run days, nights and continental shifts. We match managers to the pattern they will actually keep.

A shift manager who leaves in the first year costs a search, a handover and months of lost momentum on the floor.

Warehouse demand across London & the South East tracks last-mile and parcel carriers, grocery and e-commerce fulfilment, airfreight forwarders and national 3PLs, so peak recruitment starts early.

Getting the brief right

Warehouses run best with stable leadership. Frequent changes at the top show up in accuracy, safety and staff turnover.

Notice periods for senior warehouse roles can be long, so we plan the timeline from the first call.

A strong warehouse brief covers:

  • Daily volumes and peak volumes
  • The WMS and any automation on site
  • Headcount, including agency labour at peak
  • Salary, bonus and shift allowance
