The French subsidiary of a US global Communications Company, was confronted by the imminent departure within one week of their Human Resource Director due to personal reasons, and it was uncertain as to whether the person would return within the near future.

Due to the fast moving nature of the organisation, it was deemed critical to ensure management continuity in all aspects of HR procedures and people management.

At the request of the European Human Resource Director, NIM sourced a qualified Interim Human Resources Director who was in place within one and a half weeks.

As part of the assignment brief, the Interim HRD was able to ensure continuity and progress in all aspects of HR, including performance management, career development plans, recruitment, union dialogue and works council elections, ongoing employee case management and management of the training project/budget.
