Interim executives in the UK and Ireland are busier, earning more and getting more work through intermediaries or providers." This is a key finding of a survey carried out by Boyden Interim Management, a leading UK and Ireland interim management provider of freelance interim management executives, to both Public and Private sector organizations.
Over 650 interim executives responded to their Interim Management Survey in 2005. Among other factors, the survey looked at length of assignments year over year, number of separate assignments, average compensation, level of management, and specific content of the assignment.
One of the significant changes noted was that the types of assignments were changing. They are focusing more on performance and quality issues rather than crisis management or merger and acquisition projects.
Overall, compensation was higher, assignments lasted longer -- six months or more -- and general confidence in the economy was higher than the previous years survey.
According to Nick Robeson, CEO of Boyden, "These individuals are key indicators in the state of the economy and business in general." The complete report is available on the Boyden site. Click here to view.
