AVTAR Interim Seniors

Organizations typically choose interim managers either to fill roles that are temporary or to fill critical staffing gaps when a permanent employee cannot be found fast enough. Although they are frequently called 'consultants', Interim Managers differ from consultants because they serve in a more hands-on capacity. Organizations quickly realize many benefits as Interim Managers start in days with minimum recruitment and termination formalities who can be given a critical task on which to focus. They deliver consistently and quickly and welcome results-linked remuneration. In fact they help keep down permanent head count and are highly cost effective.

Industries world over are moving towards a work-force plug-and-play concept. All organizations prefer experienced professionals, as compared to investing in Training and Development. Its here that Senior Interims at the workplace make a huge difference – they are more loyal, less mercenary, more consistent, better at multi-tasking, make better negotiators and come out with full scores in EQ.

Interim Seniors VS Consultants and Temps

Like Consultants, Interim Seniors provide:

• The latest thinking
• Short-term access to top management talent
• Strategic capability
• An independent eye
• The ability to fast-track a critical project

Unlike Consultants, Interim Seniors are:

• Implementers as well as being strategists, analysts and planners
• Loyal to your business objectives - not their consultancy's objectives
• Flexible to do what you need - not restricted to doing things the way their consultancy prescribes
• Focused on your profitability - not their consultancy's profitability. They are not incentivised to sell in additional services you don't need
• More cost-effective

The typical profile of a Staffer who works as a temp is as follows

• Age between 22 to 28
• Graduate / Pursuing Graduation / Post Graduate
• Seeks entry level position to gain experience
• Moves out of the temping role in to full time option or once need is satisfied

This profile is in stark contrast to that of the Interim Senior.

• Age between 45 to 68
• Graduate / Post Graduate / Professional Qualification
• Has prior executive / managerial experience
• Seeks an interim career on a long term basis
• Can be tasked with responsibilities that are managerial in nature
• Can work independently without supervision
