What is an interim General Manager in Italy?

An interim General Manager (Direttore Generale ad interim) is a senior executive placed inside a company for a fixed term, typically six to twelve months, to run the operational direction while the owners or board resolve a succession, integration or transformation. In the Italian mid-market this role is filled by an experienced GM, not a consultant, with weekly on-site presence and full accountability for the P&L.
