Summary

A fast-growing business supplying household products to major high street retailers - and directly to consumers online - is looking for a hands-on Head of Operations to take full ownership of its UK warehouse and logistics function.

This is a key leadership role with real influence. You'll keep the operation running smoothly today while driving it forward for tomorrow.

The Role
You'll be responsible for:
  • Running the UK warehouse and end-to-end logistics operation
  • Leading a small warehouse team and managing 3PL partners
  • Ensuring stock, fulfilment and delivery run like clockwork
  • Improving processes, efficiency and performance across operations
  • Using technology to streamline systems and scale the business

This is very much a hands-on role - perfect for someone who likes to be close to the action.

The Person
You'll need to:

  • Be in (or recently in) a similar operations/warehouse/logistics leadership role
  • Have a practical, sleeves-rolled-up approach
  • Be comfortable juggling multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment
  • Be commercially minded and always looking for better ways of working
  • Demonstrate how you've used tech, systems or automation to improve operations

Why Apply?

  • Key leadership role in a growing business
  • Real autonomy and impact
  • Mix of strategic input and hands-on delivery
  • Strong long-term progression opportunity
