Public Sector

The Public Sector practice of Interim Partners has considerable experience of partnering with public sector organisations. We also work with some private companies that are providers of services to the public sector. Our aim is to help our public sector partners respond to the considerable challenge of reducing costs while attempting to maintain front line services. We work on a regular basis with the following: NHS Trusts, Primary Care Trusts, Strategic and Special Health Authorities, Central Government Departments, Government Agencies, Local Government, various arms’ length bodies and private hospitals.

The challenges facing the public sector have never been greater. The Coalition Government’s task of reducing the huge deficit translates to limited funding across the board. This is against a backdrop of major social, economic and environmental change and high expectations from the general public. As a result the public sector is being asked to do more for less and is under massive pressure to ensure value for money.

Our Public Sector practice can deliver multi-disciplined teams to support major change, turnaround, cost reduction and transformation programmes. Specific examples of successful assignments include:

• A management team to create a joint venture between the public and private sector with over £100m of public sector money being invested in the joint venture.
• A multi-disciplined team of 48 project managers to deliver projects with the education sector.
• Turnaround Director to merge four Primary Care Trusts.
• Chief Executives to turnaround NHS Trusts.

At Interim Partners we specialise in finding the best talent to drive these changes forward. Through our extensive network within both the public, not-for-profit and commercial sectors we can supply interim managers with specialist turnaround and outsourcing experience to a wide range of specialist areas including:
