Interims are typically independent managers who have chosen interim management as their way of working, usually after distinguishing themselves in senior management positions. The typical interim assignment can last from several weeks to several months, and can be used for any senior management position - CEO/MD, Heads of Function, Heads of Division or positions reporting to these.

Assignments are not always fulltime – often a role can be covered with 3-4 days per week input.
Interim management is not the same as consultancy - interims are doers, as opposed to advisers - they are hands-on, pragmatic, experienced managers.
