When should you call in an interim HRD manager?

• HR crisis management : When a major crisis hits the HR department, whether it's a labor dispute, high turnover or a company turnaround, the transitional HR Director intervenes rapidly to analyze the situation, implement solutions and restore optimal functioning. His expertise helps minimize disruption while ensuring continuity in human resources management.

• Prolonged absence of an HR Director : A prolonged absence can compromise the coherence of HR policies and slow down strategic projects. By taking on temporary leadership, the interim HR director maintains essential operations, such as recruitment or career management, while preparing the ground for the return or replacement of a permanent HR director.

• Major company transformation : During mergers, acquisitions, digitalization or major restructurings, an interim HR director provides immediate leadership and strategic vision. They ensure that teams embrace the changes while maintaining harmonious social dialogue and mitigating the risks associated with organizational change.
