Warehouse Leadership Berkshire | 6–9 Month Assignment | £500–£550 per day + expenses Inside IR35 or £70-90,000 + benefits This isn't simply a
warehouse management role. It's an opportunity to shape how an entire
warehouse operation will work for the next decade. Our client is a leading UK food manufacturer investing significantly in its supply chain infrastructure, including a major
warehouse transformation programme and the implementation of a new
Warehouse Management System (WMS). They're looking for an experienced Interim
Warehouse Manager to lead this critical phase of the programme, looking after a single-site on a continuous, multi-shift operation. This is not about simply keeping a
warehouse running. This is about challenging existing ways of working, improving systems, strengthening inventory control, designing future
warehouse processes and ensuring the business is fully prepared for the next phase of its operational evolution. If you enjoy walking into a business, asking "why?", building better ways of working and leaving behind a stronger operation than the one you inherited, this could be exactly the assignment you're looking for. Approximately 60% of the role will focus on the
warehouse transformation and WMS implementation - reviewing current operations, redesigning
warehouse processes, developing future procedures and ensuring the business is ready for a successful implementation. The remaining 40% will focus on
warehouse leadership, providing direction to the existing management team, reviewing the organisation structure, developing capability and ensuring the
warehouse function is fit for the future. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys challenging existing ways of working, building sustainable operational improvements and leaving a lasting legacy. The Role Working as part of the transformation steering group, you'll act as the operational lead for the
warehouse programme, working across Operations, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Inventory and IT to deliver a successful WMS implementation while maintaining a high-performing
warehouse operation. You'll balance strategic transformation with hands-on leadership, ensuring both the systems and the people are ready for the next phase of the business. Key Responsibilities
