Head of Fulfilment Jobs in Lanarkshire

Lanarkshire is one of only a few landlocked counties in Scotland, surrounded as it is by Stirlingshire, Dunbartonshire, West Lothian, Peeblesshire, Dumfriesshire, Ayrshire and Renfrewshire. It is named after the historic county town of Lanark, but the modern administrative headquarters is at Hamilton, a town with a population of 50,000 at its north western tip, close to Glasgow. Like most traditional Scottish counties, Lanarkshire’s borders have been altered and renamed, and the county is now split into North Lanarkshire and South Lanarkshire for council administration purposes.

Lanarkshire is a traditionally industrious region, with agriculture in the south and heavy industry in the north, and it is thus well connected via the UK’s road and rail network. The M74 between Carlisle and Glasgow passes through the heart of the county, as does the man railway line. Notable towns in Lanarkshire include Motherwell, East Kilbride and Airdrie. All this, and its proximity to Glasgow at its north west, make Lanarkshire a decent place to look for Head of Fulfilment jobs.
