Interim Agency – exceptional leadership solutions

We connect organizations with experienced managers and specialists to navigate critical periods and implement meaningful change.

What is interim management

It means involving an experienced manager or expert for a specific period or task – solving crises, implementing changes, finding a new direction, or providing rapid replacements in the team. Interim management is a cost-effective and low-risk way to achieve major goals in less time. Our agency connects over 400 managers and specialists, allowing us to find the right implementer for your plans.

Management audit

An interim assignment often begins with a management audit.

This is designed for company leaders and owners who want to know how their organisation truly operates. We take a fresh look at management priorities, responsibilities, costs, and workflows. Where needed, we help clarify objectives, engage the team, and bring actionable data to the management table.

When it’s time to make changes — or you simply want assurance that your company is on the right track — a management audit is a quick and effective way to gain clarity.

Is the strategy working?
Is the team moving in the same direction?
Are decisions based on timely and reliable information?
    I commend Interim Agentuur for the thorough groundwork they did to help clarify our needs and identify what kind of skills we were looking for in a new team member. The collaboration during the recruitment process and the ongoing feedback helped us not only move the search forward but also reflect on and refine our internal processes. Through the executive search, we met several excellent candidates and ultimately hired a new professional team member. Our company will definitely continue using Interim Agentuur’s executive search services — and we highly recommend them to others as well.
    Kadri Artma, Chair of the Supervisory Board, Solis BioDyne
    A professional service where agreements hold true.
    Martin Kiil, owner, O3 Technology
    The collaboration was effective, and you handled a complex task very well — especially in today’s talent-scarce economic environment. Despite the challenge, you remained solution-focused, which ensured a successful outcome. The final shortlisted candidates were well-briefed by your team, and the overviews provided were of high quality. The material we received had real substance and was easy to digest.

    Laomaailm was looking for an energetic and bright marketing manager. VVT managed the entire process, stayed on schedule, and presented us with several strong candidates we were ready to move forward with. A few months after the process, I can confidently say that we’re very happy with the choice we made.
    Tiit Hõbejõgi, CEO, Laomaailm
    I received a strong recommendation for VVT from a trusted acquaintance. We were looking for a chief accountant/financial manager for our team and, surprisingly, found ourselves struggling to fill the role. Despite using all possible media channels to share our carefully crafted job ad, we couldn’t reach the right person who would resonate with the challenge we offered. That’s when we turned to VVT. We were very pleased with the collaboration and deeply grateful for their support. Communication was smooth from the start, and we felt that they truly engaged with our needs. I had previously spoken with Terje a few times by phone and really appreciated her direct, client-focused thinking, especially on when it makes sense to use executive search services. The entire experience felt as if VVT were part of our own team. The first strong candidate expressed interest within about a week. After the interview process confirmed the fit, we found someone who matched our demanding expectations and was also a great cultural fit. I would not hesitate to use the service again in the future and have already recommended VVT to fellow entrepreneurs — which I’ll continue to do.
    Ahto Vegmann, CEO and Owner, LOOV Organic
    Working with Kristi was efficient and meaningful — our goal was to find the best candidate within a limited timeframe, and the right person started just 1 month and 1 week after the search began. We are very pleased with the result.
    Sander Kärson, Managing Partner, TGS Baltic
    We felt like we were standing still — and in a changing market, a forward-thinking company can’t afford that. VVT has been a tremendous help, support, and advisor in developing and implementing new plans. We sleep better knowing that professionals are by our side, helping us rethink and transform our organization into a successful and strong company with a renewed identity and purpose.
    Margus Lever, CEO, Event Centeri
    For Velvet, VVT is like a head coach of a sports team – someone who contributes to achieving shared goals with their experience and wisdom. VVT always inspires and encourages us to do more and do better, while offering guidance on how to do it without burning out.
    Pärtel Vurma, CEO, Velvet
    Due to developments within the company, the existing team could no longer keep up with all the tasks, and I didn’t have the time resources to handle everything myself. As a result, the company needed a new management structure and leadership approach — which we are now implementing rapidly and successfully together with the interim CEO and VVT.
    Erkki Hansen, Owner, Welding Group
    A company’s founder doesn’t have expertise in every area. That’s why even an owner sometimes needs someone to reflect back, complement their thinking, and bring a fresh perspective to the business. Krimelte hired an interim CEO from VVT, who—thanks to their high-level experience and personal qualities—was a great fit and is now responsible for the company’s day-to-day management. I encourage other entrepreneurs to also consider hiring a mobile (interim) leader.
    Jaan Puusaag, Owner and Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Krimelte
    The greatest value of interim leadership for me is the ability to reach desired results faster. It allows us to skip the trial-and-error phase, as we can rely on a wealth of experience — bringing added quality and confidence to our decision-making.
    Kaire Lukkanen-Jaas, CEO, Eesti Killustik
    Feedback from the Interim Coffee Morning: I really liked the choice of topics and the presentations. Since this was already my second time attending, I can confidently say — there’s nothing random about these interim mornings. Once again, I walked away with a lot of positive energy and valuable insights. Unfortunately, I had to rush to my next meeting right after, but I’m sure I would’ve had a great opportunity to expand my network otherwise.

    We were looking for a new Sales and Marketing Assistant for EPP OÜ and tried several tools and channels, but the right candidate didn’t find us — we failed… Then we decided to bring in support, and chose to work with VVT. Thanks to VVT’s professional approach and Heret’s excellent support, we quickly found the right assistant. This was actually the second time my path crossed with Heret and VVT — I myself joined EPP OÜ through their recruitment service. We were extremely satisfied with the cooperation, and with Heret’s all-round support, the right assistant was found surprisingly fast. I definitely recommend running your recruitment process with VVT — smooth, supportive, professional, and fast!
    Merike Ramot, Sales and Marketing Director, EPP OÜ
    Thank you so much! It was great to get to know you better. You are building a completely different kind of approach, and I really like it. It’s clearly client-centered, with the goal of solving their problem.
