Integration and management of an internal staff mobility program

CONTEXT

Our client is a French international group in the aeronautics sector, which is launching a new line of services in response to changes in its home market. It is rolling out an ambitious project by bringing together two entities under a new single brand, a group that represents more than 2,000 employees.

The group has decided to implement an accelerated integration plan. This approach includes consolidating support functions at the headquarters of the recently created holding company and implementing a staff mobility agreement between the companies. Headquarters does not have the capacity to assign a suitable resource to lead the project and so decided to use the services of IMT Partners to find an Interim Manager.
