Turnaround managers are often referred to as CROs (Chief Restructuring Officers), but it is also common to hire a restructuring manager as CEO, CFO, COO, CTO or CHRO. When selecting a restructuring manager, trust, chemistry, and the right situational experience are crucial. Our partners at Valtus Alliance will identify the best turnaround managers, teams and advisors you need to move forward fast. We will support and advise you and the selected manager(s) throughout the entire project.

In 2025 Valtus Alliance delivered advice and managers for 170 restructuring projects in 20 countries. We have about 2.300 experienced CROs and turnaround managers from about 30 countries in our manager pool.
