Press Release: Now they also invest! Manager-Investors ready to take up new challenges
Now they also invest!
Manager-Investors ready to take up new challenges. CEO Worldwide, the creator of Management on Demand innovates yet again the executive recruitment business with a new, unique concept: Managers who are interested in investing into their next company bring a total potential investment power of 108 Millions to the recruitment agency.
CEO Worldwide, an innovative player in the international executive recruitment market with a manager pool of over 6240 iCEO certified top executives completes its service portfolio. A group of managers who wish to combine their next professional assignment with a significant personal investment between 100.000 and several Millions brings a high level of added value to Start Ups, SMEs, VCs and specialist M&A firms.
An offer tailored to the needs of companies in a phase of development.
Specially devised for companies in a phase of development, this new approach responds to two substantial needs:
- to recruit a highly performing manager
- to speed up the development through a cash injection
Linking recruitment and investment for the first time, CEO Worldwide offers a particular advantageous and reassuring approach. To recruit a manager who is ready to invest his managerial know how and his personal fund in the company he joins guarantees to both parties a total convergence of interests.
In some cases, taking a stake in the capital of the company can lead to a buy out of the company by the investing manager. An interesting scenario for markets with a high buy out potential; for example nearly 900.000 SMEs will be for sale over the next 10 years in France.

Le Management on Demand - what does it stand for?
This unique HR solution allows satisfying the needs of companies in terms of temporary or permanent recruitment on a national and international level within a very short time frame. Giving access to a daily growing and updated manager pool, CEO Worldwide responds to the strong demand of companies for special know how, flexibility and reactivity and presents suitable candidates from its manager pool to its clients within one week. Using traditional executive recruitment agencies (head hunter, etc.) this process can take weeks or even months.
The three main differentiators of CEO Worldwide:
- Timing: The client receives a first selection of candidates within one week and can recruit the final candidate within two to three weeks in any chosen country.
- Contractual flexibility: CEO Worldwide offers a service contract for interim management assignments, including an option to turn the interim period into a permanent recruitment with a notice period of seven days. Alternatively, the candidate can directly recruit the manager on a permanent basis.
- Cost: CEO Worldwide works on a success fee base only. Fees only apply when a manager has been selected for interview and recruited in contrast to many head hunter agencies that ask for upfront payments.
This method can also reduce the risks and investments linked to the classic recruitment costs with the guarantee to get entrepreneurial competence and experience with knowledge of the local economic tissue (environment).
