Compare real costs. Make smarter hiring decisions…
*This calculator is for guidance only. Actual costs can vary depending on role, sector, and assignment specifics. Interim assignments typically range from 6–12 months, so a 12-month comparison isn’t always a like-for-like view. Use these results as an indication, not a final measure.

**HR & Onboarding and Equipment, Tools & Licences are automatically calculated at one third of the cost entered in the Permanent Employee Calculator.
Interims are built for impact – that’s why they often pay back more than they cost, protecting outcomes as well as budgets. With interims, you’re not paying for overheads, benefits, or downtime. You’re paying for precision, flexibility, and ROI – targeted expertise delivered only when and where you need it.
The difference is speed, certainty, and results: leaders who hit the ground running, bring specialist knowledge, and keep momentum when it matters most.
