Why Use An Interim Manager?

Interim Management is the supply of highly qualified senior professionals at short notice to perform specific roles for a pre-determined length of time. First introduced in the late 1980s, Interim Management has become one of the fastest growing executive resourcing tools, used by many leading organisations to solve management shortfalls and drive significant business initiatives such as change management.

Interim Management is appropriate in all major functional disciplines. Applications of the concept are varied, but broadly fall into 3 main categories:- project management, gap management and change management.

Project Management

Your company is planning a major initiative - such as a CRM system, an IT or e-commerce programme or the implementation of a new HR strategy - which calls for specialist skills not readily available in-house

You are relocating a factory, starting up or closing down a division, preparing a business for disposal, flotation or privatisation and this cannot be accommodated within the workload of your existing management team.

You are expanding into untapped overseas markets and need people with the local knowledge, linguistic skills and cultural ability to operate in those markets

Gap Management

Your company has lost a senior executive, for example through resignation or dismissal, and needs someone with the right skills and experience pending the recruitment of a permanent replacement

You need temporary cover for a key executive away for some time due to long-term illness, a sabbatical or maternity leave

You have assigned a senior manager to a special taskforce or promoted a key executive to a new role and do not have anybody ready to step into their position

Change Management

Your company is going through a merger, demerger or acquisition and needs assistance with the assessment, management or integration of the venture.

You are rationalising, downsizing or restructuring part or all of your business and require the objectivity of an external change agent to drive the process

Your organisation is embarking on a major programme of cultural change and needs a change manager to champion the cause and mentor existing management throughout the implementation.
