Devon & Cornwall

Shift and site leaders in Plymouth

Distribution sites run on routine and pressure in equal measure. We recruit people who handle both.

Sites such as Plymouth's port and the Devonport and Langage industrial estates run days, nights and continental shifts. We match managers to the pattern they will actually keep.

We ask candidates about the volumes, the WMS, the headcount and the shift pattern they have managed before we mention your vacancy.

With the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth serving the region, site managers across Devon & Cornwall can be drawn from a wide commute.

Your brief

Setting up the search

An empty leadership seat costs more than the advert: overtime, agency spend and pressure on the rest of the team.

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.

A strong warehouse brief covers:

  • The site, its size and what it stores
  • The shift pattern and how the team is structured
  • The key performance measures for the role
  • Your interview process and any site visit
