Supply Chain & Logistics Executive Search

Fix the people problem before it slows your growth. You don’t need more CVs. You need the right person, in the right role, at the right time.

Why hiring in supply chain and operations breaks down as you scale

Hiring in supply chain and operations is harder than it looks.

On paper, roles can sound similar. In reality, they are not.

A Head of Supply Chain in a £10m fashion brand is very different to a Head of Supply Chain in a £30m food business. The title might be the same. The job is not.

FAQs

  • What is executive search in supply chain and operations?

    Executive search is a structured hiring approach used to find senior supply chain and operations talent. It focuses on defining the role properly, identifying the right candidates, and assessing whether they can deliver in a real operational environment.

  • What supply chain and operations roles do you recruit for?

    We specialise in supply chain and operations roles, from specialist positions such as demand planners and operations managers through to senior leadership roles.

  • How is this different from a recruitment agency?

    We have built and run these teams ourselves. That means we focus on what the role needs to deliver, not just matching CVs to a job spec.

  • What is executive search in supply chain and operations?

    Executive search is a structured hiring process for senior or business-critical roles. It focuses on defining the role properly, identifying the right candidates, and assessing whether they can deliver in a real operational environment, not just whether they interview well.

  • When should I use executive search instead of a recruitment agency?

    Executive search is usually the right route when you are hiring a senior supply chain or operations role and getting it wrong would be costly. It is more targeted, more rigorous, and built around long-term fit rather than speed alone.

  • What is IMPACT Talent?

    IMPACT Talent is our integrated hiring offer for clients we already work with. Because we already understand the business, the structure and the gaps, we can build the right team around the wider operational roadmap rather than treating hiring as a standalone task.

  • Do you help design team structure before hiring?

    Yes. We often support clients in defining the right structure and capability before hiring begins, so they recruit with clarity instead of guesswork.

  • Do you only work on senior roles?

    Exec Search focuses on senior hires. IMPACT Talent can support a wider range of roles when we already understand the business through an existing engagement.

  • How do I know whether I need IMPACT Talent or Exec Search?

    If we are already working inside your business and understand the wider roadmap, IMPACT Talent is usually the right fit. If you need a standalone senior hire and want a structured, operator-led search process, Exec Search is the better route.

Need to build the right team - not just fill a role?

Whether you need an integrated hiring partner or a senior search done properly, we will help you get it right.
