Interim CEO – Business Transformation & Sale - Case Study

Interim Chief Executive Officer

Sector: Healthcare (Services)

Location: Sydney, NSW

Our private equity client owns a healthcare group and is contemplating a potential sale. Operating as a parent company housing different healthcare services platforms, the group has achieved significant growth but has also experienced challenges across some of its operating businesses.

Issue:

To ensure the group is placed on an optimum footing to maximise a potential sale, the private equity owners exited the CEO who was a solid BAU performer and sought a leader focused on forward strategic thinking and proactive operational management. Due to a possible and imminent sale, they decided to approach EIM for an interim CEO to resolve the current operational challenges and remain as part of the potential exit if the sale eventuated.

Solution:

EIM appointed a seasoned Interim Executive to partner closely with the private equity shareholders on their strategic plan to transform the business and ready it for sale. With a solid background in service-related businesses, the Interim CEO also supported strategic development projects and led the group and its varied operating businesses to meet all regulatory issues and new reforms.
