We are currently looking for a bright and energetic entrepreneur who could quickly tap into the existing TPL contacts network and build his/her own section of the business, with the full back-up of our administrative support.

  You will appreciate the value of nurturing long term business relationships and an excellent reputation for integrity, knowledge, professionalism and problem solving.

You would work partly from our Alton office or from home, so living in West Surrey or North Hampshire would be an advantage. There would be some travel, mainly within England, to meet clients and for selection interviews.

RECRUITMENT SPECIALISTS

TPL have provided logistics consultancy and management resourcing support to top ranking international companies for over 30 years.

Periodically, we need to attract new members to join our team of enthusiasts.

TPL's key strength has always been our ability to deliver results for our clients, no matter what it takes.

We work hard with our consultants to ensure success, right from the opening briefing with our clients. To achieve this we must deploy highly motivated and experienced consultants, with strong project management skills, working within their field of expertise.

We recruit associates carefully from a pool of experienced logisticians who have spent years in operational and planning roles before going on to manage projects and influence strategic supply chain decision making in large organisations.

We are looking for mid-career managers and consultants who are direct, detail-oriented and approachable, people who can work alone or in small teams, at home or at client premises, and who possess truly exceptional writing and presentation skills to communicate their clarity of thought in business terms.

You might relish the idea of running your own business, but you are wise enough to recognise the advantages of developing a consultancy portfolio as a trading partner of an established business.

PROJECT MANAGERS AND TROUBLESHOOTERS

Able to work in the UK and Continental European locations

pro rata £50-80k pa


The pressure on TPL to deliver teams of capable people at very short notice is drawing heavily on our database and we always like to attract new applicants with this encouraging message about the new opportunities.

The kind of people we are looking for are experienced warehouse and transport operations managers who are free to go anywhere in the UK and Continental Europe, and quickly become effective in an often chaotic environment. Sometimes the task will be day-to-day backfilling for internal staff seconded to projects. In other cases the interim managers will be in charge of a project.

All assignments promise to be challenging and varied. Most projects reveal unforeseen hurdles as they progress. In many, but not all cases, interim managers and the companies who take them on evolve more permanent arrangements, leading to full employment contracts. If it does not conclude in a permanent assignment there are always new projects and the experience will look good on your CV.

This kind of role requires experienced operations or projects managers who have managed major changes and know intuitively that they have to expect the unexpected. This capability will have been gained through planning and managing start-ups and business transfers. You should be resourceful and organised and able to calm and organise others. Great satisfaction is possible from seeing the results of changes and improvements that would not have happened without your involvement.
