Interim Roles
Professionalising a business is about getting your documentation, processes, people, compliance, finances, and more into great shape.
We can do this by looking at what happens today, then filling in any gaps, and raising the standard where it isn’t met.
Our expertise sits across 5 main areas and we begin any partnership with a comprehensive health check of what happens today.
Professionalise
Some Examples….
Here’s how we could help to professionalise operations and compliance within a business:
Project Management | Improve project plans, set up project teams as needed, run defined projects
Process Improvement | Conduct detailed process mapping, identify improvements and efficiencies, design a target state operating model
Policies & Procedures | Fill documentation gaps and raise the standard of working practices; Identify training needs in areas such as usage of equipment to prevent data breaches
Governance & Reporting | Review effectiveness of meetings and company governance, reporting cycles (if they exist), organisation of company documentation and operational tooling
Rationalise Tooling | Ensure a handle on system usage, subscriptions and tooling costs
Data protection and DPO | Ensure processes, controls and training is in place
We can also look at areas such as: Insurance, contract management and business continuity planning and overall risk management.
Retaining and investing in people demonstrates an excellent commitment from you to your team.
Too often we see great people in a role, but they are not mastering the skills required to do the role well. Understandably, busy companies with a keen eye on growth, haven’t had the time to create a formal training programme. Yet there are core skills to master.
Instead of hiring externally, it’s always worth considering an investment in your current team if you believe they have a bright future with the business.
We can assess training needs, then create and deliver a training plan for individuals or a team to retain staff and help develop them into their growing roles.
Train
We are completely flexible to what the leadership of a business needs. We can also help you to define what these needs are.
Some examples to consider:
Regular strategy sessions with CEO / founder / leadership
Helping to flesh out new business areas
Weekly sounding board on the business, issues, and opportunities
Strategy
For various reasons, sometimes not directly growth related, there is a need to fill an interim role.
These might be team leads, HR, CSuite or senior leadership.
Reasons for needing these might be:
Gap in hiring
New project
Unexpected leave / sickness
Maternity / paternity cover
Additionally, we can help with hiring and running the technical interview process.
Interim Roles
