Interim manager: Opportunities and threats for the company

Wardyński & Partners, Hays Polandinvite you to participate in an outsourcing workshopInterim manager:Opportunities and threats for the company

An interim manager is typically a person with very high qualifications, serving as an outside expert for specialtasks, who comes onboard for a strictly defined purpose such as putting the firm back on its feet whenproblems grow beyond the control of management. An interim manager temporarily manages the enterprise,a division, or a specific project. An interim manager may, but need not, also serve as a management boardmember or proxy.

Before hiring an interim manager, it may be necessary to resolve a number of legal issues, such as:

• The nature and characteristics of the legal relationship between the interim manager and thecompany—e.g. employment or a service contract



• The decision-making authority of the interim manager—corporate and regulatory aspects,particularly in the case of public companies and financial institutions


• 
  The responsibility of the interim manager and consequences of the manager’s actions for thecompany—civil, criminal and administrative liability.
