Interim charity managers' pay up 4 per cent

Governance | Stefan Marseglia | 29 Jan 2010

Interims working in civil society organisations have seen a pay rise of 4 per cent during the last six months, new research by Russam GMS has revealed.

The study, of 11,000 interim managers representative of the entire employment market, claims that wages in the voluntary sector rose from £499 a day in June 2009 to £521 a day in December 2009.

Stephen Brooker (pictured), chairman of Russam GMS said: “These results suggest the slowdown in the interim management market is over and that things won’t get any worse.

“Finance professionals are back out in the field helping streamline and position organisations financially for the future and we think these specialists will continue to be in demand this year, providing cost-effective and timely resource to help companies emerge from the recession.”

Similarly, interims working in education saw their pay rise by 18 per cent in the past 12 months from £544 a day to £642, while those working in the NHS also saw their pay increase by 5 per cent to £598.

The interim management marketplace grew by 0.9 per cent overall in the past six months.
