What does an Interim HR Manager do?

An interim HR manager quickly takes over HR-related tasks at times when your business is between permanent hires, undergoing a change, or needs extra support. The role is central to maintaining an effective HR function and ensuring that everything from recruitment to policy development and leadership training is handled correctly.

  • Designs and implements strategies that effectively lead the organization
    through periods of change.
  • Oversees daily operations to ensure optimal efficiency and
    achievement of organizational objectives.
  • Manages financial plans and reports to ensure responsible
    financial management.
  • Implements controls and procedures to reduce risks and improve the safety of operations.
  • Monitors and ensures that the organization complies with all applicable laws and regulations.
  • Leads and motivates the team to achieve higher performance and engagement.

When is it appropriate to hire an HR manager?

Hiring an Interim HR Manager can be a strategic decision in several situations. Here are a few scenarios where hiring an interim HR manager may be particularly appropriate:

During recruitment processes

If your organization needs time to find a permanent HR manager, an interim HR manager can effectively fill this role in the meantime. This helps maintain a stable HR function without affecting day-to-day operations.

Change management

If your business is going through a period of major change such as mergers, restructuring or cultural shifts, an interim consultant can help navigate and manage the change process effectively.

Project-based needs

For specific projects that require HR expertise, such as the implementation of a new HR system or a management training program, it may be appropriate to hire an interim HR manager with relevant expertise and experience.

Absence

In case of temporary absence of the current HR manager, for example due to parental leave or illness, an interim consultant can ensure that the HR function continues to function without interruption.

Skills development

If there is a need to raise the level of competence within the HR department, a consultant with specialist knowledge can help develop the team and strengthen the strategic role of the HR function in the organization.
