Kalle H\u00e4rkki, Managing Director of Resand, tells how Cherry&#8217;s service contributed to the growth of his company.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resand is a rapidly internationalizing Finnish growth company whose business focuses on the cleaning and reuse of industrial sand. Resand\u00ae sand technology offers a solution to the growing challenges of price and availability. At the same time, the technology reduces CO2 emissions and other environmental impacts caused by the traditional way of transporting sand.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CEO <strong>Kalle H\u00e4rkki<\/strong> says that last year Resand signed its first Sand as a Service (SaaS) contracts with foreign customers. In the coming years, the company will focus mainly on the European market and North America. The strong growth has also brought challenges, as many recruitment processes have proved too slow and the skills the company needs have changed rapidly.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/cherry.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kalle-1-1-1-819x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cherry.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kalle-1-1-1-819x1024.webp 819w, https:\/\/cherry.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kalle-1-1-1-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/cherry.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kalle-1-1-1-768x960.webp 768w, https:\/\/cherry.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Kalle-1-1-1.webp 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/resand.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Resand<\/a>, led by Kalle H\u00e4rkki, has developed a unique foundry sand cleaning technology.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where Cherry&#8217;s interim management services came into place, providing a rapid solution to the needs of a growth company. Interim managers can be acquired quickly and risk-free from Cherry&#8217;s carefully selected talent pool. This flexible approach also allows the role to be tailored to the current situation, whether full-time, part-time or on-demand.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cherry&#8217;s service also helped to manage staff costs <\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">H\u00e4rkki explains his own experience: &#8220;We needed a competent business controller with a fast turnaround time. The usual recruitment process would have been far too long, so we opted for Cherry&#8217;s interim service, which allowed us to get a specialist almost immediately. To make things more difficult, our priorities changed at the start of the contract, and the need ended up in a different role to the one we had planned. This also went off without a hitch.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flexible, project-based working is one of the advantages of interim projects. &#8220;In scale-up companies, funding is often uncertain, so managing staff costs according to the cash situation also brings flexibility to the business,&#8221; H\u00e4rkki continues.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hiring a traditional top expert is typically slow, expensive and inefficient. Cherry&#8217;s interim management services offer a fast and flexible alternative for growth companies that need to respond quickly to changing situations.  <br\/><br\/><strong>Cherry<\/strong> provides the best interim professionals for demanding roles and projects in companies across all industries. Our business model is based on speed, flexibility and efficiency. From our unique pool of talent, we place interim managers on short and long-term assignments, full or part-time. At the same time, our clients avoid fixed costs and pay only for results, not just for presence. For our top performers, we offer the best projects and a strong network for selling expertise. As an entrepreneur, you work flexibly and take control of your own career as a pioneer of worklife disruption.      <a href=\"https:\/\/cherry.fi\/en\/\">cherry.fi\/<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-author\"><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__avatar\"><img alt='' src='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/33d2a08f8d2fccff47da7f3f3d3e8f3032cbc9f8f4646c3ada906d6a16314ca2?s=48&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g' srcset='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/33d2a08f8d2fccff47da7f3f3d3e8f3032cbc9f8f4646c3ada906d6a16314ca2?s=96&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-48 photo' height='48' width='48' \/><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__content\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-author__name\">Cherry<\/p><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The article describes how Resand, a company developing environmentally friendly foundry sand cleaning technology, received help from Cherry&#8217;s interim management services.
