Interim management

Solve administrative challenges when entering new markets with an interim General Director from SCHNEIDER GROUP. Our interim management service helps companies expanding into or working within Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus navigate transitions smoothly and cost-effectively.

Entering new markets in Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus requires a local General Director to establish a local entity, not just to sign paperwork but also to interact with state authori-ties. A foreign national needs to obtain a work permit to be entitled to work as a General Director. However, these permits can only be received when an entity has already been established. In addi-tion, they require an official employment contract between the local entity and the employee. Our interim management services solve this problem appointing one of our local employees as your in-terim GD.

Interim management services are also often required by companies that need ‘back-up’ management but cannot justify hiring another full-time employee, are going through restructuring or liquidation, or are in an emergency situation, such as when travel restrictions prevent your GD from being physically present to carry out important administrative tasks.

We will appoint a trusted and highly-skilled interim GD with the necessary qualifications and experience to work in the region, offering you:

  • Greater control and transparency
  • Cost-effective and time-saving administration of subsidiaries
  • Reliable information about local business activities
  • Assurance that operations are in the interests of head office

What you get

OFFICIAL REPRESENTATION
The interim GD will sign corporate documents, file tax and customs declarations, represent your company before authorities, open and operate bank accounts and manage payments.
COST-EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT
Appointing a full-time GD may not be financially justifiable, especially for start-up or dormant companies. Our interim GD will work on an hourly basis, so you only pay for the services and time you need.
TRANSPARENT COMMUNICATION
Our interim GD will work on your behalf to ensure business continuity and full communication with head office that gives a complete picture of local business activities.
RELIABLE AVAILABILITY
Our employees start interim management projects at short notice, are always on-call and manage projects in different geographic regions, with GDs in several countries working under the same principles.
MARKET EXIT SUPPORT
The process of liquidating a legal entity in Russia is long, bureaucratic and resource-consuming. If your business is exiting a local market, we provide the services of a liquidator on an hourly basis.
BUSINESS CONTINUITY
Our GDs ensure that your business continues to operate efficiently when entering a new market or in emergency situations, so you can focus on business development rather than administrative tasks.
