Managers, buyers, planners, customs

Supply chain and logistics recruitment

When supply chain goes wrong, customers notice first. We recruit the people who plan, buy and move product, and test them on the systems, volumes and carriers you actually work with.

Why these roles are hard to fill

Systems drive the work

SAP, NetSuite, a warehouse management system or spreadsheets: the right candidate knows yours or something close to it.

Cross-border trade adds rules

Importers deal with tariff classification, CBSA requirements and customs brokers. Experience with these saves expensive mistakes.

Managers who can run a floor

Distribution centre and warehouse managers need people skills as much as process skills. We check both with references.

Shift and site constraints

Many logistics hubs sit outside city cores, near airports and highways. We are realistic about commuting.

How we screen candidates

  1. Role intake

    Volumes, SKUs, systems, carriers, import or export, team size.

  2. Process interview

    Forecasting, supplier negotiation, inventory accuracy, cost reduction with numbers.

  3. References

    Managers who can confirm results and how the person leads teams.

  4. Shortlist with notes

    Systems used, certifications such as SCMP where held, availability and salary expectations.

Common questions

Do you recruit warehouse workers or drivers?

No. We recruit professional and management roles. Hourly warehouse staff are better served by a staffing agency.

What designations are common in supply chain?

In Canada, the SCMP designation from Supply Chain Canada is common for procurement and supply chain management. It helps but is rarely mandatory.

Can you help us plan the role first?

Yes. At intake we define what the role owns and where it sits, so you hire a planner, buyer or manager for the right reasons.
