COO
Your Business Challenge:
Company Scalability
A seasoned interim COO can do far more than fill a vacant role. They can also lend expertise and experience to an existing COO to put together a strategy for how to best scale the company and remove barriers for growth.
Why Cerius Leadership?
Leaders are a rare breed—equal parts visionary and tactical master; able to lead and guide; and expertly skilled at building consensus and stepping in with a firm hand when decisive action can’t wait. Without the right leadership at the top, organizations can suffer from disorder, duplicated effort, and sometimes, outright chaos.
Cerius specializes in finding the right leadership for the right time. You’ll gain the strength of a vetted, experienced executive who can support your business, bring proven skills to the table, and get you back on track to success.
Cerius interim executives are world class interim, fractional, and project-based executives — guaranteed to move the needle where it counts.

Decades of experience, ready to hit the ground running. Primed to produce results at every growth phase.
Part-Time/Fractional
As-needed support, long-term or short-term. Big on action and impact, small on budget.
Project-Based
Laser-focus plus niche expertise and execution skills—ideal for mission-critical initiatives.
