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 and driving development
Many people today associate interim with assignments of an administrative nature. This is partly true. Our most common request is for a line role. Usually, the assignment is to engage in and maintain a functioning business. Since the consultants we provide often have both solid industry knowledge and role experience, they always have a lot to offer.
They have previous experience that can be of great benefit to the client and can act as a catalyst for change or development. The interim manager can look at the organization with fresh eyes combined with previous experience. This can lead to both new insights and constructive solutions. Hiring an interim manager is therefore an underrated way to create value and accelerate development in a company.

FAQ about
Interim Purchasing Manager
We have very good geographical coverage of our candidates and our network of interim candidates spans country-wide.
We do confidential assignments and know how to work successfully without telling the candidates who the client is. We also have procedures in place to sign confidentiality agreements when appropriate. We make sure to keep the level of confidentiality you want.
We usually say that we can have a consultant on site within two weeks. We can often present candidates for an initial review within a few days.
At Brightmill, we have no fixed prices, but we set the price in dialogue with the candidate based on the assignment and customer. We always try to expose our candidates for competition in order to present cost-effective solutions to our clients.
All assignments are subject to one month's mutual notice. Interim is a temporary solution and therefore there must also be flexibility if needs change.
