What We Do
Interim Management
Many businesses take a step back when they need to cover absence of some sort in their business. Recruitment to fill a vacancy either on a full time or short term basis can be a lengthy process. Indeed if your organisation just wants to deliver a key project you may not have the right people inside your organisation with the right skills but you may not want to employ someone full time.
Reasons for Interim management:
Cover for:
- Long or short term absence / leave
- Paternity / Maternity absence covered
- Appointment process gaps
- Sabbatical leave
The choices often fall to employing a consultant or an interim manager.
Both are right for certain circumstances and both provide similar skills:
- New ideas and the latest thinking
- Short-term access to top management talent
- Strategic capability
- An independent view
- The ability to fast-track a critical project
Consultants can:
- Work with you to plan your future direction
- Share and transfer knowledge and skills to your people
- Bring new thinking to your business
- Provide impartial advice and coach the senior team
Interim managers can:
- Be more hands on to implement solutions
- Part of your business
- Flexible to do what you need
- Cost-effective
At ley hill solutions we recognise the benefits of both types of management support – indeed some of our consultants work for shorts periods as interim managers whilst some of our interim managers work as consultants. We can discuss your specific needs and determine which option is best for your organisation. Whichever you choose think about this for a moment...
Value for Money
It’s not just about the salary of the person you are replacing the real value for money comes from not having to add in recruitment costs, bonuses, absence pay, national insurance contributions, pension, health and other company benefits.
It is accepted that a manager earning £50,000 a year will actually cost the company a further 50% (£75,000) by the time the additional costs are added in, leaving consultancy and interim management much more attractive options.
We specialise in providing consultants and interim managers for specialist roles including
- Business Continuity and risk management
- Business planning
- Strategy development
- Customer Service programmes
- Business process reengineering activity
- Management system implementation
Charges
Our charges are based on the type of role and person selected for the role.
Middle / senior manager rates vary but are typically between £500 - £1000 per day, plus VAT and expenses.
If you have executives unavailable for any reason give us a call and see if we can find the right person for you whether that are for a short term consultancy basis or for a typical 3 to 9 month period of interim management.
