Interim Executive Assignments
As experienced professionals, we are able to step into empty shoes and get up-to-speed very quickly, even in the most stressful of situations. Perhaps the need arises due to special circumstances which are positive; for example, there is an impending sale of the Company and the Controller, who does an excellent job with the monthly financial statements, needs a CFO to “package” the Company for maximum valuation and to participate in the negotiations and handle some of the due diligence issues. Or maybe there is a forthcoming major product launch and the marketing director, who does a great job of maintaining the website content and doing periodic lead generation e-mailings, does not have the experience that a CMO will bring to the table to help with the pricing, packaging, customer requests for info, and the right messaging for the sales force, and the press and industry analysts.Please start by contacting Stanton Associates when you have an executive “gap.” It just may be that one of our experienced, accomplished professionals, who has worked at the C-level before, will be exactly what you need. If we don’t have an outstanding professional available, we won’t take up your time or waste your money.
We want to help bridge a gap, solve a problem, and then move on. However, in the meantime we can make significant progress in the position on an interim basis rather than letting the status quo remain unchanged until a permanent employee is on board. In addition, when a position needs to be filled "permanently," we are happy to assist management (and the search firm) find an outstanding executive.
