The managers and supervisors who keep Oxford distribution sites safe, accurate and on time.
The best warehouse managers are usually busy running a site. We find them there, not on job boards.
Sites such as the Dartford and Thames-side parks and the M20 route to the Channel 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.
Across the South East, warehouse leaders are hired by retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.
From team leaders to site and operations managers.
We ask candidates what they improved on their last site before we ask about their notice period.
For a new site or contract we can recruit the whole team, with start dates planned around go-live.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months in the job, while a new manager settles in.
Indicative permanent salaries in Oxford 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.
A short list with notes on each candidate's scale, systems and results.
We arrange interviews and site visits, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We help agree salary, shift allowance and start date so the offer is accepted first time.
The best shift managers become the next site managers. Hiring well now builds the succession plan.
When a role is proving hard to fill, we work out whether the cause is the shift, the salary or the site. Then we say which.
