Warehouse Recruitment in Thurso

Hiring a warehouse manager in Thurso? We map the market, approach people who are not looking and send a shortlist worth meeting.

Highlands & Islands

Hiring warehouse people for good in Thurso

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

Sites such as the A9 and A82 trunk routes and the northern ferry terminals run days, nights and continental shifts. We match managers to the pattern they will actually keep.

A warehouse offer competes with every other site within reach. We help set salary, shift allowance and bonus so it lands first time.

Warehouse demand across the Highlands & Islands tracks whisky and food and drink distribution, renewable energy logistics, island and remote-delivery operators and regional hauliers, so peak recruitment starts early.

Your brief

The brief that works

Interim cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when the site needs someone to own the results.

Team leaders are often promoted from the floor. We recruit for both routes into management.

A strong warehouse brief covers:

  • The WMS and any automation on site
  • The shift pattern and how the team is structured
  • Headcount, including agency labour at peak
  • Your interview process and any site visit
