Permanent warehouse and distribution recruitment across the South East, from shift supervisors to general managers.
Permanent warehouse hires should improve the site, not just keep it ticking over.
Warehouse employers across the South East include Channel-port and customs operators, chilled grocery distribution, aerospace supply chains and regional carriers. Each runs a different operation, so we recruit to the site rather than the job title.
We ask candidates about the volumes, the WMS, the headcount and the shift pattern they have managed before we mention your vacancy.
The strongest warehouse candidates across the South East are usually already running sites such as the M25 and M3 corridors, the south-coast ports and the distribution parks around Gatwick.
The people who run the floor and the people who improve it.
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.
Safety record and approach are part of every warehouse screen, not an afterthought at interview.
Indicative permanent salaries in Thatcham run from around £28k for shift supervisors up to £55k+ for site and operations managers.
Candidates weigh the whole package: salary, bonus, holiday, the shift and the culture of the site. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Volumes, systems, shift pattern, headcount and the problem the new leader needs to solve.
Site experience, results, safety approach and right to work checked, then a conversation about your operation.
A short list with notes on each candidate's scale, systems and results.
Interim cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when the site needs someone to own the results.
Notice periods for senior warehouse roles can be long, so we plan the timeline from the first call.
A strong warehouse brief covers:
Loading live roles…
Site and warehouse managers, operations and shift managers, team leaders, inventory and stock control leads, goods-in and despatch leads, continuous improvement managers and health and safety managers.
It depends on seniority, shift pattern and how competitive the local market is. You get a realistic timeline in the first conversation.
Yes. Tell us the shift pattern and the headcount on nights so we approach managers who want that work.
Yes. Tell us the automation on site so we look for leaders who have run a similar operation.
Realistic targets, a stable team, investment in the site and a fair package. We check all four before recommending a move.
