Need an interim CEO?
With a focus on speed and quality, we find your interim CEO whatever your needs and timeframe. Through our placements, we have seen many examples of the incredible results the right consultant in the CEO role can achieve. An interim CEO often has extensive experience in senior management positions in similar businesses. With the ability to work both strategically and comprehensively as well as being operational and driving the day-to-day work, an experienced interim CEO can be the competence injection needed to take the company to the next level. With our breadth of CEO candidates from different industries, we feel confident that we can match your requirements profile regardless of the challenges you face.
We work with both large and small customers. In most sectors.






Focus on customer needs
An interim CEO should normally be able to work strategically and look at the big picture, but at the same time be able to take full operational responsibility and do what is required to drive the business forward. The requirements profile for a CEO differs greatly between companies and industries. Therefore, a key success factor in our work is to deeply understand the needs picture. We do this through close dialog with the customer from the moment we start the assignment.
Our executive recruiters have a good understanding of what is required in different situations, thanks to their long experience and numerous assignments. That’s why we can turn clients’ wishes into clear, attractive requirement profiles and find the right candidate for each assignment. Your needs are our focus.

Brightmill has an extensive network of senior interim managers and specialists. Our coverage of the market’s interim consultants is very good, both geographically and in terms of competence. Through our digital methods, we have a continuous dialog with our candidates. We keep ourselves regularly informed about their availability for new assignments. This is particularly important for interim placements as the need is often urgent.
We know that interim candidates are selective when it comes to choosing partners. That’s why we are committed to offering our candidates the most exciting assignments. This way, we can attract the best candidates. Our candidates are carefully selected and have competence and experience that are in demand by our customers.

Our work process
An overall needs analysis is carried out at the first contact. Thanks to our long experience and experienced executive recruiters, we can quickly understand the needs and advise on any questions or concerns.
Based on the needs analysis, we create, preferably together with the customer in real time, a requirements profile that defines requirements for skills and experience. The requirements profile then forms the basis for the continued process through dialogue with candidates, candidate presentations, reference taking and follow-up during the interim assignment.
Interim recruitment has to be fast. The secret is to have a large network of candidates with up-to-date information on their skills and availability. We have that at Brightmill. To find the best candidates, we always rely on our own network of carefully selected candidates across Sweden, Denmark and Germany. We work quickly and efficiently thanks to our proprietary system support that makes us spot-on and time-efficient.
In order to make the selection process as efficient as possible, we use our digital profile tool to compare candidates' competences with the requirements profile. This allows us to ensure the objectivity of the selection and that the candidates contacted have a relevant profile.
At Brightmill, we work exclusively with competence-based recruitment. The responsible executive recruiter interviews the candidates and prepares a clear candidate profile to complement the candidate's CV. Brightmill presents the most interesting candidates to the client.
The client interviews selected candidates and selects their final candidate.
Background checks are carried out on all candidates we present. Reference checks are carried out by Brightmill on the final candidate. It is also based on the requirements profile and supplemented by a series of generic questions that are compiled in writing in an easy-to-understand format.
Contracts are signed digitally with the client and then with the consultant. Brightmill also provides assistance with start-up and onboarding.
Creating value with an interim manager
Many people associate interim roles with tasks of an administrative nature. This is partly true. At the same time, we know that it is common for interim assignments to often shift from being administrative assignments to becoming development assignments. Clients take advantage of the experience that interim managers have to offer. An interim CEO can take a company to the next level during a transition period. This is because interim placements often involve hiring a slightly overqualified person who can deliver results quickly. The same applies to other interim managers in their respective fields.
Hiring an interim manager is a great way to create value and accelerate development for your company. It creates the conditions for looking at the organization with new eyes, which can lead to both new insights and constructive solutions.
