International Interim Management

We place interim managers in international executive and senior management positions throughout the world as well as in the UK.

Interim Management enables businesses to recruit a specialist manager, often immediately, on a flexible contract. In an economic climate where tough economic conditions create resistance to recruiting permanent staff, the value is even greater. Interim management generates real value for businesses with limited risk. Harling Menzies Interim complements our core Executive Search business by providing our clients with the ideal alternative to hiring permanent staff.

The “Interim” option is particularly effective in the following situations:

To maintain stability following a Board reshuffle resulting in “fall-out”

To inject “tier one” business leadership in a smaller or underperforming business

To back-fill a key position following a resignation until a permanent manager is appointed

As a flexible alternative replacing a permanent hire

To add specialist knowledge to a team in the short-term to kick start a new initiative or division

To lead a major change programme with a specific end date

What are the benefits of interim management?

Appointing an “over qualified” manager who can “hit the ground running”

Time to hire is typically 1 month, from instruction to start date

Uncomplicated, “all inclusive” daily rate or fixed term contract; no car, pension, health care costs

A variable, not fixed cost to the business

The cost of exit at the end of the contract is zero. No hefty redundancy fees when the task is complete

Opportunity to convert to a permanent hire at the end of the contract

Career interims are highly versatile and can operate effectively in different business environments
