When an interim solution secures HR delivery
HR is your organization’s most important resource and rarely takes a break. Whether you need a leader or a specialist, an interim consultant provides stability and peace of mind. We match you with consultants who can quickly get to grips with the culture and drive both operational and strategic HR issues from day one.
Common reasons:
- Covering a vacancy: When an HR manager or HRBP leaves, it is critical not to lose momentum. An interim consultant will maintain continuity and support managers until the new one is in place.
- Change management: Support in reorganizations, downsizing or mergers where specific knowledge of trade union negotiations and labor law is required.
- HR projects: Implementation of new HR systems, salary surveys or talent management processes that require additional resources.
- Sick leave or parental leave: A flexible solution to replace key competences for a limited period of time.
Whatever the reason, we make sure you get the right reinforcement in place – with clarity of direction and implementation.
Decision support for matching HR professionals
In HR, the personal match and understanding of your specific company culture is often crucial to the outcome. An interim consultant must not only have the right formal qualifications, but also the ability to build trust and navigate the organization from day one to effectively drive HR issues forward.
Through our competency-based methodology, we combine an in-depth analysis of the cultural context of the assignment with objective decision support that gives you full transparency throughout the placement process.
Our decision support gives you full control:
- Cultural context and business needs: We define the assignment based on the organization’s level of maturity, pace of change and strategic priorities – whether it’s labor negotiations or long-term talent management .
- Ability to build trust: HR leadership is about trust. We present a professional analysis of the candidate’s ability to build relationships and drive the HR agenda based on our in-depth interviews.
- Reviewed track record and specialist expertise: You will receive a clear account of how the consultant’s HR background and experience addresses your current challenges, along with a reviewed and clearly structured CV.
- Transparency in the matching process: We provide an honest assessment of how the candidate’s profile aligns with your specific needs, highlighting both the candidate’s key strengths and the areas that should be carefully considered in relation to the role requirements.
- Practical framework and availability: Full information on fees, start dates and geographical conditions will be presented early on to ensure an arrangement that works in practice.
With this methodology, we typically present well-matched HR candidates within a few days, ensuring a safe transition where HR delivery can continue without interruption.

FAQ – Interim HR Professionals
In case of emergency vacancies, parental leave or during complex change processes such as reorganizations and downsizing.
Interim HR is a strong solution when you need to bridge a gap in order not to lose momentum in HR delivery, but also when specific experience in union negotiations and labor law is required. It creates stability and peace of mind in the organization while a long-term solution is developed, which is critical as HR issues can rarely be paused.
Usually within 1-2 weeks, with the first candidate presentations within a few days.
Once the role requirements and scope of the assignment are defined, we immediately activate our network of senior HR professionals. For very urgent needs, such as critical negotiations or sudden vacancies, we prioritize available consultants who can step in at short notice.
From HR managers and HR Business Partners to specialists in employment law, change management and talent acquisition.
We match both operational and strategic needs, whether you need a leader for the entire HR function or a specialist for projects such as salary surveys and system implementations. Our network also covers roles such as HR Director and Compensation & Benefits specialists.
By analyzing the assignment to understand the balance between operational work and cultural matching.
In HR, understanding the specific context of the organization is often crucial to the outcome. We are looking for consultants with proven responsiveness and adaptability who can quickly build trust and navigate your specific circumstances from day one.
They are accustomed to both and often act as a business partner driving the HR agenda forward.
Senior HR professionals often bring broader experience than the assignment strictly requires, allowing them to lead complex change journeys while supporting managers and employees in their day-to-day work. They have the ability to develop the organization’s human capital and build trust at all levels.
Pricing is set individually for each candidate based on seniority and the demands of the assignment.
Each consultant has a specific hourly rate, which is clearly reflected in the decision support we present, providing full transparency. An interim solution is often more cost-effective than a mis-recruitment or a long vacancy, as you only pay for time worked without long-term commitments or the fixed employer costs that come with a permanent hire.

We are used to handling sensitive situations involving restructuring or strategic leadership changes. You decide what information is communicated and when, and we often work with anonymized search to protect the process from information leakage.
