More about the interim manager

The HR Interim Manager has been working in HR for 23 years and will have reached his 20th anniversary as an interim manager in 2025. He is often commissioned as head of HR Services or HR Shared Service Center.

The focus is usually on optimizing processes and workflows or establishing them in the first place. In addition, insourcing and outsourcing projects in the HR environment are another topic for which his advice is requested. One of the interim manager's particular areas of expertise is current IT processes for simplifying and standardizing even complex payroll requirements.

A particular skill of this interim manager is his ability to structure projects quickly. He quickly summarizes the challenges and critical milestones resulting from the analysis in a status report as a basis for further action. In his opinion, a constructive error culture is one of the indispensable components of modern and successful project management - also in the field of human resources.

The interim manager is also characterized by the fact that he works strategically, but is also always operationally active. Above all, he puts his wealth of experience at the service of client mandates. However, he is also happy to share this with the professional community, for example through publications on the HR business partner model in the Haufe publishing house.
