Permanent warehouse and distribution recruitment across Cumbria, from shift supervisors to general managers.
Permanent warehouse hires should improve the site, not just keep it ticking over.
Distribution sites across Cumbria are served by the M6 and A66, the West Coast Main Line and the port of Workington. Good managers weigh the commute and the shift as carefully as the salary.
Night shifts, weekend cover and continental patterns suit different people. The shift pattern is one of the first things we ask about.
Warehouse leadership roles across Cumbria are spread across sites such as the Barrow-in-Furness shipyard and marine supply estates.
From team leaders to site and operations managers.
Volumes, headcount, systems and stock profile: we match leaders to sites like yours, not just to a job title.
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 Workington 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.
Volumes, systems, shift pattern, headcount and the problem the new leader needs to solve.
A short list with notes on each candidate's scale, systems and results.
We keep in touch through the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.
A leader who knows the site's history makes better decisions about people, layout and process.
We ask candidates why they left their last site. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.
