Regional Depot Manager (Multi-Site / Mobile) £45,000 + Car Allowance + Fuel Card UK-Wide Travel (6 Depots) - Ideally Midlands Based The Opportunity This is not your typical operations role! We're looking for a high-calibre Depot Manager ready to step into a broader, more impactful position - supporting multiple sites, influencing standards, and driving operational excellence across a growing UK network. You'll act as a trusted operational leader, stepping into depots when it matters most - whether that's covering leadership gaps, supporting growth, or embedding better ways of working.

What We're Looking For This role is ideal for someone who: - Is currently a Depot Manager (or similar) with strong operational credibility - Wants to step into a regional-style role without full P&L ownership - Can quickly build trust in new teams - without feeling like "the outsider" - Is naturally solutions-focused ("how do we make this work?") - Enjoys improving processes, coaching people, and raising standards - Is confident challenging ways of working and driving change You'll need: - Proven experience managing depot or logistics operations - Strong leadership across multi-functional teams (warehouse, transport, yard, admin) - Solid understanding of stock control, dispatch, and service delivery - A hands-on, adaptable, and resilient approach - Full UK Driving Licence - Flexibility to travel and stay away when required What's On Offer - £45,000 salary (some flexibility for the right person) - £5,000-£6,000 car allowance - Fuel card (business + personal use) - Accommodation and meals covered when staying away - A highly varied role with real influence across multiple sites - Clear opportunity to step up and broaden your operational impact This is a rare opportunity to move beyond a single-site role, influence multiple operations across a growing network, work closely with senior leadership on process and performance and develop into a true multi-site operations leader.
