Interims for Development is a privately held UK-based company established by African professionals in response to the expressed need by African countries for capacity building as a key requirement for sustainable development. 

Interims for Development was established in 2002 by Frances Williams, a Human Resources Management and Training Professional with almost 20 years’ industry and consultancy experience in Europe and Africa.

Interims operates in partnership with a network of experienced Associates including Trainers, Consultants and Interim Managers from across a wide range of professional backgrounds.

Our Associates and Interims are well placed to promote international best practice in people management and development within the operating and cultural context of Africa today.

Interims for Development has built a strong reputation as an innovative and successful organisation emanating from the African Diaspora. Our contribution to capacity building in Africa has been recognized with the 2005 Gold Award for Innovative Capacity Building at the British awards of the GWIIN (Global Women Inventors and Innovators Network).
