Core offering

Interim Profis is an interim management staffing agency that recruits, screens, and places experienced interim managers into temporary leadership and project roles at companies across the DACH region. The firm places interim executives and senior managers (CEO, CFO, COO, HR, IT, procurement, production, sales) into engagements covering executive vacancy coverage, project and program management, and transformation/restructuring mandates, charging a provider markup on top of the interim manager's daily rate under a melting commission model.

Product overview

Interim Profis GmbH is an interim management staffing agency that provides temporary executive placement services for mid-sized companies in Germany. The company operates a single integrated service offering focused on connecting businesses with experienced interim managers across all central business functions (CEO, CFO, COO, HR, IT, procurement) and industries (Automotive, Mechanical Engineering, Medical Technology, IT, Food, Chemicals, Energy). Their service portfolio includes Interim Management placement, Project & Program Management, Executive Vacancy Coverage, and Transformation Support, unified by their distinctive melting/fading pricing model that progressively reduces provider fees over project duration. The matching process follows a four-step approach: inquiry & consultation, pre-selection of personally vetted managers, candidate presentation (typically within 48 hours), and project start with continuous support throughout the mandate.
