§ FAQ

Domande frequenti

Who hires an interim CEO in Milan?

PE funds with Italian portfolio companies headquartered in Lombardy, foreign groups whose Italian subsidiary is based in Milan, boards facing a sudden CEO exit, family-owned groups navigating a generational transition.

How fast can an interim CEO be in the seat?

Operating start within 10 working days from signing the mandate letter. First confidential call within 48 hours. NDA before any data exchange.

What day rate should I budget?

800-1,500 EUR per day depending on company size, complexity and mandate scope. A 6-month full interim CEO mandate typically lands at 100-180k EUR fully loaded, materially below the loaded cost of an executive search plus permanent hire.

Is remote work possible?

The default is 3 days per week on-site in Milan plus remote for the rest. Fully remote is not credible for a real CEO role in an Italian mid-market environment.
