Specialist commercial recruitment for the intralogistics industry.

Executive sales recruitment for the intralogistics industry.

Specialist sales recruitment across material handling, warehouse automation, storage solutions and supply chain technology. We find the commercial people who win and keep customers.

The Challenge

The best sales people are rarely openly or actively on the market.

We build relationships with them long before they are.

The commercial talent that wins work in intralogistics is in short supply. The people who can sell material handling, automation and storage solutions understand throughput, return on investment and integration risk. They know their worth, have options, and are rarely looking. Finding them takes deep networks and industry knowledge, not job adverts. Keeping them takes the right structure and a long-term relationship.

Evara is built for the businesses that want to hire properly. We know the industry, we know the people, and we approach the ones who fit.

The Method

ALIGN. The hiring method that actually works.

Seven steps that turn a brief into a hire who is still there two years on, doing what they said they would.

  1. STEP 01

    We define your role properly

    A written scorecard with outcomes, package and behaviours, signed off by the hiring manager before any outreach.

    Prevents: A search built on a job title and a guess.

  2. STEP 02

    We build your bespoke opportunity pack

    A bespoke EVP and opportunity pack: role narrative, growth story, comp benchmark, day-in-the-life and CEO or MD note, wrapped in a digital attraction campaign.

    Prevents: A standout passive operator binning a generic recruiter message.

  3. STEP 03

    We map the full talent market

    A named long-list of where the right operators actually sit, including the strong ones who are not on the market.

    Prevents: A shortlist drawn from whoever happened to be applying.

  4. STEP 04

    We target the right candidates

    A first conversation framed around your commercial brief, not a generic pitch, so the wrong fits drop out early.

    Prevents: A pipeline of polished CVs with no commercial intent.

  5. STEP 05

    We run real commercial screening

    A structured assessment of pipeline ownership, leadership and motivation, scored against the scorecard agreed in step one.

    Prevents: A hire who interviews well but cannot carry a number.

  6. STEP 06

    We deliver a laser focussed shortlist

    Three to five candidates presented with strengths, risks and cultural fit, supported through to signed offer and start date.

    Prevents: A CV flood followed by a rushed offer.

  7. STEP 07

    We stay with you through offer, onboarding and 90 days

    Offer design that holds against a counter, a 30-60-90 plan agreed before day one, and check-ins at day 30, 60 and 90 with both the hire and the hiring leader.

    Prevents: A strong hire quietly drifting in their first quarter because nobody owned the landing.

Meet the founder

Rachel Lunn

Co-Founder of Evara

Rachel co-founded Evara after 11+ years leading recruitment at Toyota Material Handling, one of the world's largest material handling businesses. She knows the intralogistics world from the inside, and she knows what a strong commercial hire looks like in it.

She built the ALIGN hiring method so sales and commercial hires stop failing for the same predictable reasons: a role that was never properly defined and a screen that was never properly run.

  • Architect of the ALIGN hiring method
  • Specialist in senior commercial and sales leadership search
  • Track record of placing leaders who stay and perform
