Tips for a Good Interim Management CV

Tips for Interim Management CVs

See our sample successful CV.
  • Do start with a summary profile of yourself. Avoid waffling.
  • Do emphasise your specialist area and how many years of experience you have in executive management positions, normally 10+ years.
  • Do summarise in a paragraph your successful outcomes. What are you famous for?
  • Focus on your main functional experience and what you have to offer to clients – which may not be the same as your next step on the corporate career ladder.
  • Keep it simple and easy to read.
  • Maximum four pages.
  • No colour text or background.
  • No photos.
  • No large attachments.
  • Avoid a jack-of-all-trades approach. These get deleted very quickly.
  • Include facts and figures on budgets, staff numbers, achievements and responsibilities.
  • Remember that a good interim management CV is not the same as a corporate career CV.
