Logistics Manager – Food Manufacturing
We are currently recruiting for an experienced Logistics Manager to join a well-established food manufacturing business based near Stoke-on-Trent. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced logistics professional looking for a Monday-to-Friday, days-based role with a stable and growing business.
The Role
As Logistics Manager, you will be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day logistics operation, ensuring the smooth movement of raw materials, packaging, and finished goods across the site. You'll work closely with Production, Warehouse, Purchasing, and Customer Service teams to ensure deliveries are planned effectively, stock is managed accurately, and customer requirements are consistently met.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
