Interim Head of Digital Transformation

Strategic momentum in your digital transformation

Digital transformation is no longer a matter for the future—it is essential for business growth, competitiveness, and operational efficiency. But success requires more than just technology: it comes down to leadership, the ability to drive change, and the capacity to embed a clear digital vision throughout the entire organization.

An interim digital transformation leader quickly brings the expertise needed to lead and execute digital transformation. This individual joins the executive team, drives strategic initiatives, and ensures that digital initiatives are well-supported, successfully implemented—and measurable.

What does a Chief Digital Officer bring to the table?

What an interim head of digital transformation brings to the table

An experienced digital transformation leader develops a strategy grounded in business objectives, leads major initiatives such as ERP or CRM, as well as AI and automation, and establishes sustainable working methods. Expertise is built internally through knowledge transfer; technology and business are integrated throughout the organization; and data-driven work is given a clear structure from collection to analysis and decision-making.

When is it time to hire an interim solution?

The need arises when a key position becomes vacant, in the run-up to major initiatives and implementations that require experienced change management, when ongoing projects are losing momentum, or when there is a lack of internal leadership expertise but a lengthy recruitment process is not feasible. An interim solution provides immediate direction and momentum.

Qualities of a successful interim digital transformation manager

The role requires a holistic perspective and attention to detail, along with the ability to translate strategic goals into concrete steps. The leader is a skilled communicator and educator, makes data-driven decisions with a pragmatic approach to implementation, and has a proven track record in change management within both growth-stage companies and mature organizations.

The recruitment process

Our recruitment process is fast, streamlined, and tailored to your needs. We ensure you find the right candidate quickly through a clear job description and an efficient screening process.

1. Scope of Work & Objectives

We listen carefully to your expectations, goals, and current situation. A job description or job posting can serve as a basis, and we conduct a structured interview with the client.

2. Search for candidates in the network

We select and contact approximately 20 suitable candidates. We conduct interviews with the relevant and available consultants we identify, based on the job description.

3. Quality Assurance

The top 3–4 candidates are presented to the client within 1–3 days. A follow-up meeting with the client is held to finalize the selection and plan the next steps.

4. Customer Interview – Background Check

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.

5. Contract

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.

6. Assignments are carried out

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.

7. Conclusion – Potential Employment

The assignment is 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 recruitment fee decreases the longer the assignment has lasted.
