Why choose Interim Management?
My career in human resources in various private companies has been rich but exhausting on a personal level. I felt a real need for more meaning, more real exchanges and sharing of experience and above all the desire to be able to use my expertise to bring real added value.
I started working as an HR Interim Manager in 2018, following an outplacement programme. The two key reasons for this choice were, firstly, to get out of a contractual and authoritarian relationship and, secondly, to have real freedom to choose the HR projects I was going to take on.
Why choose Profile Group as a Freelancer?
Being interim manager for Profile Group has been, and remains, an extraordinary adventure because the scope of the projects I'm entrusted with is so broad. Structuring processes but also optimising HR organisation, working on the employer image and even providing support at difficult times such as outplacement interviews with work on the structure of the interviews, supporting people at a time of stress.
I can bring real added value to each project because there's a real close relationship with the team. We sit together at the weekly meetings, where we share our difficulties and help each other out. Profile Group offers support, but it's never imposed: I'm trusted and given the opportunity to manage these difficulties on my own. What's more, it's very easy to talk to people and they really listen to me. I know I can express myself. My point of view is put forward in the development of solutions. My added value is recognised because I have operational experience as well as management experience. There's a great appreciation of my dual expertise and the fact that I can integrate quickly and easily into each assignment.
As an interim manager, working with Profile Group is a varied and rewarding experience: we have a strong, more human relationship based on shared values.
