#ThriveNews - March Edition
We are thrilled to kick off B Corp month by reflecting on our company's journey towards achieving B Corp status in 2023. It's a milestone we hold with immense pride, considering the rarity of B Corp-certified firms in the realm of Interim Management and Executive Search. While there may be only a few others, we believe that more of our peers will join this movement in the years to come.
B Corp status isn't just a badge; it's a testament to our unwavering commitment to building a better business for our people, clients, and planet. It validates the work we've put into aligning our operations with our values and purpose. It guides us towards the kind of clients we want to work with. However, it's crucial to recognise that this is just the beginning of our journey. We must continually strive to improve and measure our impact, ensuring that we uphold the standards set by the B Corp community.
The significance of B Corp resonates with us daily. Just last week, we reached a significant milestone by signing contracts with a new marketing and web hosting agency for our group of companies, including Trustees Unlimited. Like us, they are proud B Corp holders, a clear indication of our dedication to partnering with organisations that not only share our values but are also committed to making a positive difference.
As we honour B Corp month, let's recommit ourselves to catalysing positive change and nurturing a sustainable future.
All the best,
Jason Atkinson and the Russam Team

Interim Management Survey – February 2024
“Our clients continue to voice concerns about the uncertainty in the job market, a sentiment echoed by KPMG’s UK report on jobs indicating a decline in permanent placements in Jan ‘24. Despite these challenges, the interim sector remains robust, with Russam experiencing heightened demand in specific sectors such as private equity and roles involving operational remodelling. The term “try before you buy” came up twice this week in client meetings. However, our latest survey suggests a slight shift in sentiment compared to 2023, with 60% of respondents feeling positive or neutral about interim job opportunities, marking a 5% drop from previous levels."
