Useful tool for interim rates

Benchmark interim rates

Do you want a quicker understanding of a market based hourly rate for an interim assignment? With the Planet Interim Benchmark Rate Tool, you get a practical indication based on role, field, experience, region and assignment duration. The benchmark is primarily based on Dutch market data, supplemented with insights from Belgium and Germany among others. Actual market value can vary significantly by country, sector, region, seniority and assignment type. The outcome should therefore be used as a practical indication and starting point, not as a fixed market rate.

The tool was developed in cooperation with Intelligence Group and helps interim managers, independent consultants, freelance specialists, employers and intermediaries interpret rate information more effectively.
