Interim consultants when you need them most

Scandinavian Executives began searching for the right candidate to fill your position long before your need arose. We are constantly expanding our network of qualified and competent interim consultants, based on the principle that good consultants know other good consultants. Today, after more than 10 years in the market, we have over 8,000 consultants in our network.

Our network is active and constantly growing, which means we’re well-prepared to meet your needs whenever they arise! At short notice—often within 1–3 days—we can provide recommendations for consultants, interim solutions, replacements, project management, or any executive or operational role your company or organization may need to fill.

Whether the assignment involves driving change, implementing restructuring, cost-cutting measures, providing temporary support, or filling an existing position.

We listen carefully to your expectations, goals, and current situation. A job description or job posting can serve as a starting point, and we conduct a structured interview with the client. The more information we receive at the outset, the more successful the search will be later on.

We then review our quality-assured network—all 8,000-plus consultants affiliated with us—and compile an initial list of potential consultants who meet the specified requirements.

We don’t search on LinkedIn or go through third or fourth-degree connections in our network. These candidates are then given a brief overview of the assignment, including the time and financial requirements, and quickly let us know if they are available and interested in the assignment.

We conduct preliminary screenings over the phone and select the most suitable candidates for the next step, which is a personal interview.

We engage in a more in-depth discussion about the assignment with the best available candidates, and from this group, we typically select the 3–4 consultants we deem most suitable for the client to meet in person.

The client conducts interviews, any tests they may require, and interviews with the candidate’s grandparents. References are checked as needed, and a background check may be conducted on the final candidate.

We draw up a contract specifying the duration and scope of the assignment, always with a transparent pricing structure so that both the client and the consultant know how the fee is allocated. We always pay 80% of the fee to the consultant. If the client is dissatisfied, the contract can be terminated with a maximum of one month’s notice.

Throughout the project, we maintain regular contact with both the client and the consultant to address any questions or gather feedback necessary for a successful collaboration.

The assignment will be concluded as specified in the agreement; however, if the assignment was intended to lead to employment and both parties agree, it will result in a hiring.

The fee for this is reduced in three stages depending on how long you have hired the consultant: within 6 months, after 6 months, or after 9 months of the assignment.

The entire process takes between 1 and 3 business days.
Fees are always presented transparently, with 80% of the fee going to the consultant. Both the client and the consultant know how the fee is allocated, which creates a sense of security and clarity. No one is kept in the dark, and there are no hidden fees.

Always provide us with transparent information about:

• Role and responsibilities – must-haves
• expectations
• overall strategic objectives
• conditions within the organization
• soft skills and what’s “between the lines” in the job description

This increases the likelihood that we will find the right candidate for the job.

The key is that you are visible and searchable in our network with a clear profile and resume.

These show what you can contribute, which roles are a good fit for you, and when we should reach out to you.

When you receive a request for an assignment—often via email or text message—please respond promptly, even if you’re busy at the moment.

A resume of about 2–3 pages is preferred; the reader wants to quickly get an overview of who you are and what you can contribute.

We also always prepare a brief introduction to you as a consultant for the specific assignment at hand. This explains why you, in particular, are involved in the process.
