The term Interim management refers to the rapid provision of senior Sensibly Overqualified executives to manage change or transition. Interim managers are commissioned on an assignment basis and act for a third party in the capacity of senior managers.

Interim managers have a proven track record of achievement and of adding tangible value to the bottom line of the organisation. They are used to delivering on time and on budget.

They are experienced problem solvers, who are committed to this career, strategic thinkers and accustomed to rolling up their sleeves and actually doing the job.

They are independent and objective, and bring a new perspective to the assignment. They are free to focus specifically on the assignment, available immediately and leave when no longer required.

Are vital skills not available in your organisation within the timeframe?

Can you clearly define the role to be filled by an external resource?
Is the role to be filled predominantly an executive or managerial one, rather than a consultancy?
