PILOTpartners is the only UK interim management provider with a ring-fenced, individually vetted, specialist Panel of about 600 independent executives with demonstrable professional, functional and operational expertise in turnarounds, business transformation and restructuring situations. The Panel is divided into two cadres:

I – Turnaround Leaders
Chief Restructuring Officers operating in the UK and internationally – about 150 excutives.

II – Functional Specialists
Chief Executives, Chief Financial Officers and Chief Operating Officers operating in the UK and internationally…as well as other executives with experience of ‘heavy lifting’, managing projects in difficult or stressed situations in e.g. supply chain/logistics, human resources, production transfer, property, systems recovery etc.

Interim turnaround executives are normally available on a full time albeit temporary basis. In many cases, especially when the issues are not immediately life threatening, an interim executive can operate on a part time basis such as Chairman or in a specific advisory or mentoring/support role.

We also support stakeholders requiring an experienced, independent pair of eyes “to have a quick look” at a business where, for example, underperformance or working capital issues are worsening and/or as a condition of further lending or other financial support.

Many of our most challenging assignments are ‘Quick Fixes’ where a seemingly intractable problem can be resolved readily by an experienced turnaround director with recasting cash flows and forecasts, sorting out onerous leases, managing cost reduction programmes or selling stock.

PILOTpartners also uniquely manages interim executive turnaround panels on behalf of the restructuring departments of major accounting firms.
