The terms interims and contractors are often used interchangeably, but there are differences which might inform your decision.

Interim Managers:

  • Senior Roles
    Typically fill executive or senior management positions.
  • Strategic Focus
    Brought in to lead change, manage projects, or fill leadership gaps.
  • Longer Engagements
    Usually engaged for several months to over a year.
  • Expertise
    Provide high-level strategic insight and organisational direction.

Contractors:

  • Varied Levels
    Work at different levels within an organisation, from entry-level to senior roles.
  • Specialised Skills
    Hired for specific technical expertise on short-term projects.
  • Shorter Engagements
    Often engaged for specific tasks or time-sensitive projects.
  • Project-Based Work
    Focus on executing defined tasks rather than managing broader strategies.

In summary, interim managers offer leadership and strategic guidance, while contractors provide specific skills for project-based work. The choice between the two depends on the organisation's immediate needs and long-term objectives.
