FAQs

What is interim executive search?

An interim executive search is the rapid placement of executive leaders on a short-term basis to solve immediate business challenges. At tml Partners, we connect organisations with proven interim CMOs, CROs, CGOs, and senior functional leaders who can step in at pace, deliver impact from day one, and guide transformation. Our global networks of pre-screened talent, combined with our expertise in payroll and compliance ensure clients benefit from a seamless process and immediate access to high-calibre executives.

When do companies need to deploy an interim manager?

Companies turn to interim managers when they need experienced leadership at short notice to handle change, bridge a gap, or drive critical projects. This could include covering sudden leadership departures, leading a transformation, managing a turnaround, or delivering urgent growth initiatives. Interims bring immediate expertise and are expected to make an impact from day one.

What’s the difference between an interim manager and a fractional consultant?

An interim manager steps in full-time for a defined period to lead, stabilise or transition a function, taking on decision-making authority and accountability. A fractional consultant works part-time over a longer term, providing strategic leadership or expertise without full-time commitment. The interim role is about embedding quickly and driving execution, while the fractional role focuses on sustainable support and oversight.

How quickly can you place an interim executive?

Speed is at the core of interim recruitment. Thanks to our global networks of pre-screened marketing and commercial leaders, tml Partners can typically introduce qualified interim executives within days, not weeks. From CMOs and CROs to functional leads, we ensure clients have immediate access to talent that can deliver impact from day one.

How can an interim professional work with you to find a role?

We work with senior interim leaders, usually with 10+ years’ experience at Director level or above. While many clients prefer candidates with prior interim experience, this isn’t always essential. What matters most is your ability to start at short notice and bring deep functional expertise, as clients expect interim managers to deliver immediate impact.
If this reflects your background, you can submit your CV here, and a member of our team will be in touch when an opportunity matches your skills and career goals.

I have recently had the pleasure of dealing with Hannah Jenns at TML Partners in my capacity as a potential candidate for a senior marketing role she was fulfilling. From the outset Hannah demonstrated a deep understanding of B2B marketing roles which established her credibility, and enabled us to have a meaningful conversation. Throughout the process, she asked considered and great questions! she provided constructive feedback, and I genuinely felt she was working for me not only her client. It is clear Hannah has a great relationship with her client’s in-house talent team. She passionately explained the business, was knowledgeable about the team and is a valuable advocate for them. I appreciated the extra effort Hannah took to check in before and after interviews. Would highly recommend Hannah both to candidates and organisations in the B2B marketing space.

Emma was absolutely fantastic to work with from start to finish. She took the time to jump on calls throughout the process and was always available to answer any questions I had about the company and role. Her guidance, professionalism, and genuine support made a huge difference — she really went above and beyond and made herself indispensable. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I truly hope all of my future career opportunities come through Emma!
