The interim management firm has announced a new appointment to develop the company€™s Entrepreneur practice.

Alan Horn, former CEO of The Interim Management Group, will be taking up the role.

Horn has extensive CEO level experience in the interim management industry and in private equity. His new role will involve expanding Russam Ventures by introducing interim managers to private equity, banks and other stakeholders for transformation, restructuring and turnaround assignments.

Commenting on the appointment, Charles Russam, Chairman of Russam GMS, says: €œWe are delighted Alan will be working with us to develop our Entrepreneur business. I have known him for many years as a highly respected and formidable competitor. We share similar values and a commitment to developing long term relationships with clients and candidates.€

Horn jointly established the Interim Management Association with Russam GMS in 1987 and has also been working alongside the REC, primarily in legal and lobbying activities.

Horn adds: €œUnlike some other providers, Russam GMS offers a broad range of specialist resourcing services for businesses and I am excited about our new working partnership.

€œDelivering serious and sustainable change in a business might often be about quick fixes or conventional turnaround, but offering the progressive CEO this new and much-needed option will, I am certain, prove to be a compelling board level human capital offering in the demanding months ahead.€
