At some point, a companys financial position and operating scenario can move from a turnaround to a crisis. When this occurs, the focus of a Centrus crisis management professional is to provide on-site, senior-level interim support and stabilize the failing company. We identify the most critical issues facing the company, prioritize their magnitude, and implement the necessary actions. Often, a short-term crisis management professional serving as interim management is an attractive alternative to making a permanent change in such critical times.
The crisis management professional possesses skills specifically required to stabilize a crisis situation, which are not necessarily the same skills needed to manage long-term redirection and growth of the company.
During a crisis situation, the Centrus professional will normally assume the duties of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Operations Manager, Plant Manager, Sales Manager, Trustee or Receiver.
Unlike other consulting firms, we accept the full scope and responsibility of these positions, including hiring or firing decisions, as well as accepting fiduciary responsibility over company assets. As your crisis management professional, our duties would include
Day-to-day operating and financial management
Negotiation and execution of financial relationships
Communications with lenders, creditors and attorneys
Negotiation of all company contracts and liabilities
Disbursement of funds
Collection of funds
Other customary duties
Centrus professionals have also served as Trustee and Committee Advisory in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy environments, as well as Receiver in state actions. A thorough understanding of not only the business issues, but the legal issues as well, is a critical benefit of the Centrus expertise in crisis situations.
