Assignments are generally handled through direct approach.

As these roles are highly sensitive, strategic, and close to the Executive Committee, recruitment processes are often confidential.

We recommend sharing as much information as possible with your MOMEN contacts regarding:

• Your expectations
• Your areas of expertise
• Ideas for projects you could contribute to

This increases the likelihood that the firm will keep your profile in mind and identify assignments that match your background and on which you may be selected. MOMEN will send you opportunities whenever your profile aligns with a mission.

You can also activate your personal network to identify opportunities, then contact MOMEN so we can support you in turning the opportunity into a concrete project with the client.

MOMEN’s business model is designed to increase the chances for interim managers to access continuous assignment opportunities.

Yes. If considered necessary by either the client or the interim manager, training can be undertaken during the assignment. However, assignments are often highly demanding in terms of time and require the manager’s full commitment. If the training is extensive, we recommend completing it during periods without assignments, whenever possible.

• Assignments may take place anywhere in France (large, medium-sized, or smaller cities). In such cases, the expected mobility is generally from Monday to Friday (or less), with travel and accommodation expenses often covered by the client.

• For international assignments, mobility requirements may follow the same pattern or involve relocation for the entire duration of the assignment, depending on the location and context.

  In most cases, mobility expenses are covered and added to the assignment billing.

You invoice MOMEN, and MOMEN invoices the client company.

In approximately 20% of cases, the interim manager is hired internally.

Yes, absolutely. Our recruitment methodology is well established, and we conduct exploratory interviews to better understand the background, skills, and personalities of all the interim managers we present to our clients.

The rate varies significantly: you may work full-time for three consecutive years, or experience periods between assignments. For example, you may complete an 18-month assignment and bill around 220 days during year N, then have a four-month gap the following year and bill only 160 days. Interim management is not a risky activity if you manage your cash flow and income properly.

Most assignments are based on a commitment of means. However, the moral commitment to do everything possible to address the client’s complex challenges should not be overlooked.

Yes, maternity leave coverage can be one of the reasons why our clients seek replacement managers.

Yes, this can be arranged for certain assignments, in discussion with the client.

We invite you to submit your CV so that we can review your profile and get in touch with you.

• You can absolutely manage several assignments in parallel, provided they are not full-time and that schedules are compatible. With MOMEN, you sign a confidentiality agreement requiring you to keep all client-related matters strictly confidential.

• However, we do not recommend carrying out several assignments simultaneously if there is any conflict of interest.
