A proven track record in Interim Executive Search

 

  • Interim management is a valuable tool for private equity and investor backed healthcare and life sciences organisations which can be deployed rapidly and is a more flexible and cost efficient alternative to permanent hires. Key advantages of interim management focus on:

    • Rapid deployment – individuals and teams who are often available immediately or within a short lead time without a lengthy recruitment process
    • Immediate impact – interim talent delivers results quickly, adding value from day one, building relationships and getting up to speed in minimal time
    • Specialist skills – interim talent will have a track record of delivering with wider experience than permanent counterparts and access to skills often beyond the scope of the task
    • Value for money – interim managers are only paid for days worked via a day rate and unlike permanent employees do not cost the organisation on-costs such as bonus, pension, holiday pay and NI contributions – these are all included in the day rate
    • Objective approach – interim managers act independently, are not influenced by internal politics and are focussed on what is required

     

  • Investors and particularly private equity thrives on change. It is fast paced and is driven by results. Interim management responds to changes in situation such as urgent leadership changes during the investment cycle, change or restructuring post-acquisition, short-term EBITDA uplift or during distress.

    Therefore, having interim options covering Chair, Non-Executive Advisors, CEO, CFO, CPO, operational and commercial functions should be essential, rather than a nice-to-have.

     

  • Interim executives are independent business leaders, executives who have operated at C-suite, and change facilitators who are experts in their field and work objectively to both provide and implement strategy and solutions.

    They often work across a range of disciplines and sectors, bring a track record of high performance and are an ideal match for scaling investor blacked organisations, and organisations in transition, undergoing major change or insolvency.
