General Manager

London UK, UK, United Kingdom ELIS Full time

Are you an experienced General Manager in manufacturing or distribution, used to handling hundreds of thousands of orders each month, with all of the complexities that creates from logistics to customer service? Is sustainability top of your wish list, from sourcing materials to people management and development? Are you looking for a collaborative, supportive culture, where you’re able to take responsibility and make decisions for your own site, while benefitting from the experience of thirty other sites, all wanting you to succeed? If you’re used to high volumes and high service levels, and you’re all about continuous improvement, this could be the right place for you.


Elis, a leader in circular linen services, is present in 29 countries worldwide and has over 52,000 employees. The UK comprises 30 locations, offering a range of services to industry. Key to the company’s value proposition is its rental model, meaning customers can focus on their core business while reducing their environmental footprint.


The Brixton site provides flat linen services, chiefly to the hospitality and healthcare sectors. With over 800,000 items processed each week, it is a well-run, well-maintained facility with a committed leadership team in place. Internal movement is planned and supported at Elis, and this role has come about due to an internal progression. Elis takes its commitment to its colleagues seriously, supporting career development in every sense.


We are looking for a commercially savvy General Manager with an eye for operational improvement and the ability to work effectively with everyone from the Board to the shop floor. You can move seamlessly from a strategy meeting, analysing every line on your P&L, to a discussion about whether a piece of capex has another six months of life before it needs to be replaced. You’re as happy in a client meeting, negotiating terms, as you are working through logistics planning, and you love it when your team does such a fantastic job that other sites are calling them for tips.


You’ll already be a General Manager with full P&L responsibility. You might be in facilities, logistics, or high-volume manufacturing. You’ll certainly be hard-working, humble and naturally positive, and you’ll be looking for a place that you can feel proud of.
