ES Interims

ES Interims is a Dallas-based recruitment agency that delivers global talent solutions, specializing in placing contract, fractional, and interim executives across various industries. Founded by Jim Stewart, who brings extensive experience as CEO of multiple private-equity-backed companies, the firm focuses on providing proven leaders who can step into critical roles and drive results from day one.

ES Interims specializes in providing experienced interim and fractional executives who excel in complex, high-pressure environments. Their executives typically serve three to twelve months to tackle critical challenges, manage transitions, and drive measurable outcomes for organizations facing pivotal moments or transformational opportunities. The firm's approach centers on delivering leaders with no internal agendas or job security concerns, enabling them to bring fresh perspectives and make bold, strategic decisions that accelerate progress.

The company offers a comprehensive range of interim management services, including managing key projects, dealing with supply chain issues, filling temporary management gaps, back-filling positions during special projects, coaching senior executives, and facilitating major business changes such as acquisitions, mergers, restructuring, and labor negotiations. Their executives are carefully vetted to ensure the right fit for each company's specific challenges and culture.

ES Interims prides itself on turning obstacles into opportunities by providing leaders who collaborate seamlessly as partners, aligned with client missions and committed to delivering practical solutions. The firm's founders bring a unique combination of executive leadership experience and legal expertise, with Jim Stewart's background in manufacturing and construction products complemented by Carol Stephenson's legal and financial leadership skills.

What sets ES Interims apart is their ability to execute specialized, 'one-off' searches for hard-to-find talent across all functions and levels, often at very short notice. Their extensive network and personalized approach enable them to source quality interim executives who can provide immediate impact and position organizations for sustained success through periods of transition and growth.
