Reduced risk and higher quality with an interim accounting manager

More efficient procedures and better oversight

Accounting, reporting, and processes are kept stable and efficient. The consultant quickly familiarizes themselves with the business, identifies areas for improvement, and implements measures that enhance the quality and speed of accounting workflows.

Fast and secure change management

During system migrations, reorganizations, or expansions, the interim manager keeps operations and the transition on track. Financial reporting continues to run smoothly while implementations and adjustments are carried out according to a clear plan.

Reduces risks and mistakes

Compliance with regulations and standards is ensured. Financial statements, tax returns, and reports are accurate and submitted on time. The risk of errors, delays, and associated costs is reduced, and credibility is enhanced.

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.
