Interim Management can be described as the rapid, hands-on resolution of business problems by highly experienced senior executives hired on a short-term basis of typically 3-9 months.

An interim manager is typically an all-in-one project manager, consultant and senior executive working at or very close to board level.

Typical benefits of interim management are:

• Rapid initiation and commencement from initial decision

• Minimum recruitment and termination formalities

• Quick results achieved by generally over-qualified interims who are achievement and result driven – flexibility is prime

• Interim managers bring broad skills and experience and transfer this to the client's team – happy to inject ideas

• Full ownership taken and will not just make recommendations but implement actions and improvements

• Clear objective definition, regular progress reports and performance measurement

• Provides the opportunity to see what can really be achieved and the standards which can be attained – revitalises an operation

Typical situations when interim management is helpful

• Sudden departure of key personnel/skills shortage

• Closing down or selling off a facility

• Major change initiative needed

• Launch or start up of new business

• Business survival and turnaround

• Personal development and mentoring

• Maternity leave/long term absence
