For Interim Managers: The Right Mandate In Corporate Affairs

Are you an interim manager specialising in communication, marketing and/or sustainability? You have come to the right place. We arrange mandates in these areas – for example, to bridge a vacancy, a sabbatical or a foreign assignment, during work peaks, illness or for special projects. 

Interim mandates in communication and marketing: What are your competences and preferences?

In order for us to consider you for suitable mandates, we need basic key data from you – not least:

What are your main areas of expertise?

Which regions/cities would you consider?

What is your time availability?

What is your day rate?

What skills does an interim manager need?

The professional and personal qualifications an interim manager in the field of corporate affairs should have, depend largely on the specific challenge. In our experience, the following aspects are important:

Relevant track record

In the interim business, everything has to happen quickly – plug & play is the maxim here. Employers therefore often expect relevant experience in exactly the area (industry, function, etc.) in which you are in demand.

Resilient change know-how

Interim managers are often deployed in companies that find themselves in change situations. If you want to succeed in these situations, you not only have to endure change, you have to like it and be able to drive it.

The right leadership style

Sometimes a great deal of tact is required – or the hard hand that executes decisions that the predecessor was unable to implement and with which the successor should not dwell. Quite a few mandates require both.

Flexibility & Co.

Also usually important: flexibility (in terms of time, space, content), excellent time and project management, C-level capability, resilience. The better and faster interim managers learn the ropes, the more successful they are.

Consultation: “Should I become an Interim Manager? How does it work?”

More and more communications professionals are considering a career in interim management, often without a clear understanding of what it entails: What exactly does an interim manager do? How does it differ from a permanent position? Am I suited for it? How much could I earn, how do I find clients, and how intense is the competition? What could be my unique selling point? Could I return to a traditional role afterward?

We support you in answering these questions. Our consultation sessions cover:

  • One-hour session, available in person, by phone, or via video
  • Interim Management: Typical tasks and requirements, including dos and don’ts
  • Alignment of your goals/expectations with client requirements and market conditions
  • Opportunities and risks of starting an interim role
  • Possible areas of impact and strategic directions
  • Format/Location: by video or in-person in Düsseldorf
