Interim Management: Not a Job for Egos

Carsten Jordan is the owner of CJ Management Consulting & Interim Solutions and supports industrial companies in the operational management, stabilization, and further development of production and organization. His focus is on interim management in roles such as COO, plant manager, or production manager — particularly in demanding situations such as restructurings, ramp-up phases, or organizational change. In these contexts, he takes on temporary responsibility and delivers fast, measurable results.

His professional focus is on lean production, internal logistics, value stream optimization, and the sustainable improvement of processes and workflows. The goal is to consistently realize efficiency potential while at the same time establishing stable, high-performing structures within the company.

In addition to his strong execution skills, Carsten Jordan brings extensive experience in leading employees and teams. Especially in times of change, he succeeds in involving the people affected, reducing resistance, and developing organizations in a focused and effective way.

His experience from projects in private equity environments, business transfers, and complex transformation processes enables him to provide clear direction quickly and implement sustainable improvements even under difficult conditions.

My clients come to me when operational challenges no longer need to be analyzed but solved. For me, interim management means taking responsibility, fully integrating into the organization, and achieving results together with the teams on site — not putting oneself in the spotlight. What clients particularly value is my ability to get up to speed quickly, make an immediate impact within the organization, and deliver stable results even under pressure.
