How It Works When You Hire an Interim Consultant from Aspia

Requirement Profile

We meet to discuss your expectations for the consultant. We go through job requirements, authorisation, and software requirements.

Matching

Based on your responses to our questions, we strive to match the best consultant for your specific operation.

Interview

You will be presented with one or more matched consultants. During the interview, you have the opportunity to ask questions and assess whether the individual is the right fit for your needs.

Contract

The chosen consultant is contracted, and the assignment can begin.

Ensuring Quality in Our Assignments

Interim assignments are time-limited, so it is crucial to maintain quality and finish the assignments in a structured manner. 

To ensure quality, we follow up on the work performed by the consultant. We operate according to Reko standards, which means we have the right to access the information and documentation necessary to perform quality control of the assignment retrospectively. 

Once the contract has expired and the follow-up has been completed the assignment ends.

How Quickly We Can Appoint an Interim Consultant

One of the most common questions we receive about interim consultants is how quickly a role may be filled by a consultant.  

A significant part of our job involves searching for, interviewing, getting to know, and staying in contact with potential consultants. This means we are always working proactively in order to be one step ahead. 

When a client contacts us, it's not uncommon for us to already have a few consultants in mind by the end of the conversation. Our extensive industry experience and the fact that many of us are accountans or other finance specialists ourselves will enable us to quickly understand our clients' challenges. Furthermore, our sub-consultant portal comprises over 1,000 consultants spread across the country. 

Exactly how fast the process of hiring an interim consultant can be depends primarily on two things: 

  • The complexity of the assignment. 
  • How much time you can allocate for the required meetings.

Four Key Considerations When Hiring an Interim Consultant

Iren Sayar, Interim Consulting Manager advises: 

1. Act quickly

Interim consultants are rarely available for new assignments long period of time and skilled individuals are snapped up quickly. It’s important to respond promptly when a consultant is proposed. Ensure you have time available when the process starts.

2. Get most out of the consultant

Many of our consultants have experience from various industries and systems, which you can benefit from. Considerregarding the consultant as an opportunity for a competence injection. Consultants generally are not just maintainers; they aim to improve and change. Perhaps you can achieve more than originally expected? Is there a process to review? Something that could be automated. It is always particularly rewarding when our clients return having received more than they anticipated.

3. Create the perfect conditions

Having the perfect conditions is crucial for your consultant to start effectively and begin delivering results quickly. Careful planning of the onboarding can bring significant benefits. Ensuring the right work tools are in place and that the consultant has access to all necessary systems are some of the basics.

4. Distinguish between permanent employees and Interim

My fourth tip is more of a reminder to avoid a common pitfall. Often when considering hiring a consultant, one might think of it as a long-term recruitment. Typically, a consultant spends a relatively short time at a company, and focus can easily shift incorrectly. Therefore, consider what is most important for the consultant to accomplish. It might be more important that the person is an expert in a specific system rather than sharing the same hobbies as the rest of the office.
