Interim Management

Davies & Robson’s interim management service provides high calibre supply chain and logistics managers to clients in a wide range of industries.

Interim Management complements our consultancy offering. Interim managers are ideally suited to implementing business or process change and providing additional specialist resource for a specific project. They are also suited to provide cover for absence or additional resource at a time of peak activity.

Whereas a consultancy project is more likely to be clearly defined and to determine a strategy or plan, the interim manager is better placed to implement it, working within the clients’ team for a period of time. Working in-house, the Interim Manager is an integral part of the team, aligned only to the clients’ objectives and without the restraint of politics or long term positioning. They are adept at delivering quickly and from a standing start.

The need for an interim manager usually arises at short notice, and in 75% of cases the operational management performs the sourcing of the Interim Manager rather than the usual HR processes. The challenge of good interim management provision is to deliver the individual with the required skills and experience within a short time frame.

Davies & Robson’s knowledge of the logistics and supply chain market enables us to fully understand your requirement and advise you on it. Both in terms of the specification for the role and who would be best suited to it. Our comprehensive network of candidates and contacts in the industry means we are able to provide you with the right candidate quickly and efficiently.
