Services Overview

Executives Online provides senior and board-level interim management, project management, change management, and rapid executive recruitment throughout Australia. For clients seeking talent by the month or permanently, Executives Online’s unique process – a blend of technology and personal service – delivers precisely the right person for the job. Once in place, our candidates deliver results, in a diverse and challenging set of roles.

Our clients – including large blue-chip companies, SMEs, professional service firms, charities, and public-sector organisations – have employed Executives Online candidates to launch products, engineer turnarounds, and restructure manufacturing operations, and design and execute effective marketing programmes, among many other projects. Sometimes a candidate is simply a quick replacement for a key executive who has abruptly departed.

The interim management, project management, and change management professionals in our talent bank deliver value because they provide:

  • Speed – they are available to start in days – with the minimum of recruitment or termination formalities.
  • Experience – they’re often over-qualified for the work.
  • Results – they are only as good as their last placement – so track-record and performance really count. They are used to being judged by results so they know how to deliver.
  • Knowledge Transfer – they will transfer a huge amount of skill, contacts and experience to your team which will remain long after they have left.
  • Objectivity – while sensitive to the company's ethos, they will not be constrained by company politics, personalities or protocols.
  • Focused – they can be given a critical task to deliver against and be measured against it.
  • Delivery – yes they can act as counsel to the Board – but they will then roll up their sleeves and deliver the results too.
  • Lower Cost – the cost to employ them is limited to the candidate’s day rate, with no insurance and superannuation, paid holiday, annual leave, car, or other benefits. And there’s no permanent employment commitment – when the work is done, they’re gone.
  • Accountability – many assignments can be structured with a results-based component of the candidate’s pay, tied to the accomplishment of specific project objectives.

Our permanent recruitment service produces an extremely fast, on-target short-list of strong candidates for the role. Clients may choose our Fast Start service, which lets them quickly access superb candidates from our interim / freelance talent bank, and possibly commence the employment with an initial period structured as a contract, or our more traditional Advertising and Selection service. Either way, Executives Online delivers fast, effective permanent recruitment and superlative value for money.
