Interim
Experienced leaders who deliver impact from day one through change, transformation or absence. Vetted, aligned and supported throughout.
Experienced interim leaders who deliver impact from day one, across change, transformation and leadership gaps in London’s public, charity and commercial organisations.
When an organisation in London faces transformation, a leadership gap or a programme that simply has to land, the cost of the wrong appointment is measured in months, not day rates. The right interim steadies the ship and leaves it stronger.
Oakmyre finds those people. We know our interims well, follow up consistently, and only ever recommend someone we believe will be a genuine fit, the work of a recruiter who has placed senior interims for two decades.
The most expensive interim is rarely the one with the highest day rate.
Deep, genuine expertise across the sectors where interim leadership matters most.
Flexible senior expertise across Becontree, scoped to deliver the outcome and not just fill a role.

Oakmyre is led by Sian Williams, who founded the firm after twenty years in senior and executive recruitment, with particular depth in interim, transformation and programme leadership.
She knows her interims well, follows up consistently, and looks after them throughout the assignment. That reliability, and the network behind it, is what organisations in London get when they work with Oakmyre.
Securing the right leader, not just filling a vacancy.
Clients describe consistent follow-up, high-calibre interims and genuine business continuity.
From our first conversation, I had a sense that she genuinely wanted to find the right opportunity for me, rather than simply placing me in a role. That resulted in an interim CEO opportunity that was a great fit. The relationship didn’t stop once I accepted the position either. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Sian again.
Sian knows her interims well and follows up consistently and effectively. This has been incredibly important to business continuity and stability, and I wouldn’t hesitate to make her my first call for future needs.
From start to finish, she guides you through the process, making it straightforward to secure the right people for your team. Sian will never recommend a candidate she does not genuinely believe is the right fit for the role.
