Recruiter – Manufacturing & Distribution (360 Desk Build)

We’re expanding into manufacturing and distribution across food production, packaging, and 3PL supply chains — and we’re looking for a recruiter to build this desk from the ground up.

This is a focused, high-trust niche build — not a volume desk. You’ll start by owning candidate supply, developing deep expertise in food production, packaging, and distribution environments, then grow into a true 360 role.

You’ll be supported by a senior BDM, helping you develop the commercial side of the desk and accelerate your path to success.

• Build a high-quality candidate network in a defined niche
• Develop expertise in how food plants and DCs operate
• Form trusted relationships with plant, operations, and DC leaders
• Grow into business development through credibility, not cold calling
• Design workforce solutions that reduce risk and improve performance

We prioritise quality over speed, depth over volume, and long-term partnerships over short-term wins.

• Experience in food manufacturing, packaging, logistics, or industrial recruitment (or strong operational understanding)
• Ability to engage credibly with operations leaders
• A builder mindset — someone motivated to create and own a desk
• Focus on long-term relationships over activity metrics
• Discipline to stay within a defined niche and build reputation

• A trusted, reliable talent pool in your niche
• Strong relationships with key manufacturing and distribution sites
• Involvement in workforce planning — not just hiring
• Contribution to reducing operational risk, not just filling roles

If you want to build a desk with depth, credibility, and long-term impact — with the support to succeed — we’d love to hear from you.
