Permanent warehouse and distribution leaders for sites in Oakham: managers, shift leads and inventory specialists who run a tight operation.
We look for leaders who have run an operation like yours: the same volumes, the same shift pattern, the same kind of stock.
Logistics around Oakham is anchored by the Golden Triangle's national distribution centres and the air-freight hub at East Midlands Airport. We recruit the permanent leaders who keep those sites performing.

The strongest warehouse candidates across the East Midlands are usually already running sites such as the M1 and A14 corridors and the East Midlands Airport freight hub.
Leadership roles across goods-in, storage, picking and despatch.
We check that the shift and the journey to your site in Oakham work for the candidate before they reach your shortlist.
We benchmark salary, shift allowance and bonus against the local market before the role goes out.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months in the job, while a new manager settles in.
Indicative permanent salaries in Oakham 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.
