Experienced

Frank Godbersen & Partners provides experienced Interim Leaders across Procurement, Supply Chain and Operations
For leadership gaps, transformation and critical assignments where proven experience is needed immediately
Discuss an Interim need
When Interim makes sense
When experienced leadership is needed now
Leadership gap
A key leader leaves, is unavailable or a permanent replacement is not yet in place.
The organisation needs experienced leadership to restore direction, performance or control.
A major change requires someone who has led a comparable transformation before.
A defined challenge requires experience that is not available internally.
What makes FG&P different
Proven before placed
We look for leaders who are deliberately experienced beyond the immediate requirements of the assignment — people who have already handled comparable situations and can get up to speed quickly.
The learning curve should be the company, not the role.
Selected. Proven. Available. Focused.
Selected
Personally known and qualified by FG&P.
Proven
Relevant track record from comparable assignments.
Available
Availability and practical conditions confirmed before presentation.
Focused
A shortlist of typically 2–3 relevant leaders — not a stack of CVs.
FG&P Associated Partners
Our Interim assignments are often delivered through a selected network of experienced Procurement, Supply Chain and Operations leaders whom we know personally and work with over time.
They are not anonymous freelancers from a database.
They are selected for relevant track record, proven experience, availability and their ability to contribute quickly in demanding situations.
- Relevant leadership experience
- Proven track record on comparable situations
- Personal FG&P qualification
- References checked
- Availability and mobility confirmed
- Leadership profile, including Hogan Assessments where relevant
