Job Details

The company

My client is a very well-known company with a number of recognisable products and licenses across the Toy, Gift and Stationary Market. This is a particularly innovative and creative company who are keen to continue developing their product range with quality products which are desired throughout the market.

They have a well-established sales team and a great working atmosphere which is led by the senior leadership team. They have excellent market penetration in the Top 4 Multiples and High street retailers and they also have a strong presence within the online retailers. As a result of their strong growth and the amount of new opportunities that this has generated for the business, they are now looking to appoint a Operations Manager to join their team, to help them grow to the next level of the businesses evolution.

The Role

Reporting into the Managing Director you will be a key member of the leadership team. You will be based from their head office in Leeds and you will be responsible for a team of 5 administrators and 3 merchandisers. This is a team orientated role in which you will work within. You will be responsible for ensuring that the quality and integrity of the final products meet all UK safety standards and are fully compliant with UK legislation.

As most of my client’s distribution is done from the offices in the Far East the role will require a small amount of travel to that region. Experience working within the Far East would be beneficial but not essential.

The right candidate

The right candidate will have a background in Toys, Stationery or Giftware and come from an operations management background. You will be commercially focused and capable of delivering results in a cost effective manner. You will have strong organisational, planning and communication skills and have the ability to work as part of a team. Experience of distribution within all or one of the industries listed above, along with demonstrable experience in people and process management will be a distinct advantage.

You will also be capable of building working relationships and networks with people from a range of backgrounds and culture. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with the right attributes and experience to join a fast moving and dynamic company.
