Services
Restructuring, M&A & Divestitures
Restructurings, mergers, acquisitions and divestitures create leadership gaps exactly when execution matters most. We provide interim executives who take ownership of the change: from integration and separation management to running a business unit or function through the transition.
When to call us
When the organisation itself is changing shape
- A deal is signed and someone needs to own integration or separation
- A carve-out depends on transitional service agreements (TSAs)
- A restructuring plan exists, but execution is stalling
- A key executive has left at a critical moment
- Synergies or cost savings are not materialising
- Day 1 readiness is at risk
What we do
How we take control
- 1 Interim leadership of a business, function or integration office
- 2 Integration and separation planning, including Day 1 readiness
- 3 Carve-out execution and TSA set-up, management and exit
- 4 Cost restructuring and operating model redesign
- 5 Synergy tracking and value capture
- 6 Stakeholder, employee and change management throughout
What you can expect
Outcomes, not reports
- Clear ownership and leadership through the transition
- A controlled Day 1 and a stable business afterwards
- Synergies and savings that actually land
- A smooth handover to the permanent leadership team
Typical roles
Who we provide
- Interim CEO / COO
- Interim CIO / CTO
- Integration Director (IMO Lead)
- Separation & TSA Lead
- Interim Restructuring Director
Available as a full-time interim or a fractional engagement, starting with a Rapid Diagnostic if needed.
Our approach
Four steps, one accountable leader
-
Step 1
Diagnose
We establish the facts quickly and independently: talking to all stakeholders, reviewing plans, contracts and numbers, and separating symptoms from root causes.
-
Step 2
Stabilise
We stop the bleeding. Clear governance, decision rights and communication restore control, and visible early actions rebuild confidence.
-
Step 3
Recover
We lead the execution of an agreed recovery plan hands-on, with measurable milestones and honest reporting to your leadership.
-
Step 4
Hand over
We plan our exit from day one. Knowledge, ownership and capability are transferred to your permanent team, so results last after we leave.
