What is interim management?
Interim management involves the placement of a highly qualified senior managers within an organisation for a fixed period of time. This highly skilled individual will work at the complete disposal of the company, taking on operational responsibility within the framework of a well defined mission whilst working as a self-employed person.

Robert Walters has thoroughly checked the motivation, ability and success rate of each interim manager before putting them forward for an assignment.
