Interim Sales

Contact us

 

Interim sales directors by their nature are transformational gold dust; their sole goal to reach business objectives within a given timeframe.

Our interims are highly experienced commercial experts at director to C-suite level. They are adeptly equipped to deliver key transformational, viability and turnaround projects, and able to relieve the pressure of lengthy senior hires. Interim sales directors deliver at a level above contractors, who generally sit at a lower management level for a fixed term period with core business accountabilities.

Why choose an interim sales professional?


Interim sales in demand

There is a high demand for commercially astute, strategic sales and commercial leaders – people who can navigate the ebb and flow of market changes, and respond to changing buyer behaviours and customer demands. Interim sales professionals answer the constant need for organisations to innovate and seek ways to improve the customer experience. 

The right interims deliver revenue targets, orchestrate organisational change and think outside the box, introducing new sales and marketing approaches to compete in the modern marketplace.

Key benefits of interim managers

The benefit of appointing an interim sales professional is twofold. It provides an instant enhanced capability to deliver business-critical sales and commercial strategy for better outcomes. It also supplements incumbent resources, offering high-calibre expertise which may not already exist in-house.

Ultimately, the appointment of a high-performing interim will directly positively influence revenues, profit margins and overall company performance.
