I’m supporting a UAE-based organisation with the appointment of an experienced Interim General Manager to take full ownership of a multi-division business during a period of change and transformation.

This is a senior leadership mandate requiring someone who can step into the business quickly, assess the current operation, make decisive changes and take full accountability for performance.

The role will include:

  • Full day-to-day ownership of the business, with multiple functional teams reporting directly into the GM
  • Full P&L and commercial responsibility
  • Leading a business-wide transformation and turnaround programme
  • Reviewing the existing cost base and overhead structure and implementing improvements
  • Setting and executing the overall business strategy
  • Driving operational efficiency, profitability and sustainable growth
  • Working closely with senior executive leadership
  • Leading across business areas spanning print, digital/AV solutions and IT/managed services

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven General Manager, Managing Director, CEO or senior business leader with full P&L ownership
  • Strong track record of business transformation or turnaround – able to assess a challenging environment and implement change quickly
  • Experience within IT services, managed services, cloud, digital transformation or a closely related technology-led business is essential
  • Print industry experience would be highly advantageous, particularly alongside technology/services experience
  • Commercially decisive with strong leadership and stakeholder-management skills
  • Comfortable making difficult decisions around cost, structure and operational performance

This is an urgent requirement. There is also potential for the position to develop into a permanent leadership opportunity for the right individual.
