Interim Director
A leader for the transition period who acts only in your company's interest
Interim director: we select an independent leader when the company needs a director for a transition period. The general meeting of your company's participants elects the director, who works under an employment contract with the company and is not our employee for the term of the assignment. Our team runs the management framework, while decisions and signatures stay with the director and the participants.
The first 30 minutes are free. We scope the work and name a range.

Pricing
Selection of an independent director is paid as a one-time fee on a separate line of the contract. Your company pays the director's salary, employer taxes, and bonus, and they are not part of JBS's fee.
When you need an interim director
An interim director is needed when there is a gap in leadership: the previous director has left, the company has been bought and is changing its management, or the company is in crisis. The interim director leads the company through the transition period while the participants decide who will be the director next.
Most often an interim director works alongside our programs: post-acquisition integration or the operations team. The director leads, and our team runs the management framework: finance, accounting, control, taxes, rhythm.
How the relationship is set up
- The general meeting of your company's participants elects the director
- The director works under an employment contract with your company
- For the term of the assignment the director is not an employee of JBS
- Your company pays the salary, employer taxes, and bonus
- JBS does not pay the director, and our fee covers selection only
Why it works this way
A director is accountable for the company they lead. If we paid the director, a third party's interest would appear. That is why the director works only for your company and is paid only by it.
The director's bonus is tied to the same KPIs as the program: revenue and margin, EBITDA and net profit, cash flow. This way the director and the team look at the same numbers.
