From goods-in to despatch, we find permanent warehouse people for Oban sites and put forward the ones with the right site experience.
Permanent warehouse hires should improve the site, not just keep it ticking over.
Warehouse employers across the Highlands & Islands include distillery and agri-food supply chains, marine and renewables logistics plus multi-modal operators serving the islands. Each runs a different operation, so we recruit to the site rather than the job title.
When the Oban market is thin for warehouse talent, we widen the search along the commute and give you an honest view of the likely shortlist.
With the A9 and A82, Inverness Airport and the ferry links to Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles serving the region, site managers across the Highlands & Islands can be drawn from a wide commute.
Permanent warehouse and distribution roles, from the first shift supervisor to the general manager.
We ask candidates what they improved on their last site before we ask about their notice period.
Volumes, headcount, systems and stock profile: we match leaders to sites like yours, not just to a job title.
Most strong warehouse managers are not looking. We approach them with the details that would make them move.
