Logistics salary in London
Most logistics ads in London pay £30,000 – £40,000 a year before tax, and £45,000 – £60,000 for logistics managers. London pay is usually 10–20% higher than the rest of the UK, but so is rent, so compare the full package: pension contribution, bonus, holiday and how many days you need to be in the office.
What employers ask for
Most logistics job ads in London ask for freight or supply-chain experience, a WMS or TMS and strong Excel. The sectors hiring most are e-commerce, freight forwarding and retail, and many openings are in Heathrow, Park Royal and the Thames Gateway.
Visa sponsorship and right to work
Most roles need the right to work in the UK. Some employers sponsor a Skilled Worker visa, and the ad usually says so: search the description for "sponsorship". See our visa sponsorship jobs for employers that hire from abroad.
