An interim placement is a temporary position designed to meet a specific business need for a limited duration. These placements can be advantageous for both candidates and organizations. Here are several reasons a company might opt for an interim role:
To fill a vacant leadership position
To cover for an employee on leave, such as maternity, sick leave, or sabbatical
To meet a short-term demand for additional support or expertise
To assist with business restructuring, mergers, or acquisitions
To work on a project with unique requirements
Interim roles are generally at the managerial or leadership level and can last anywhere from three months to a year. Professionals are brought in to manage a project or team. Interim Search firms may focus on specific types of roles for their engagements.
