Nope, this one has all the trademarks of an inside move, a slimy management thing:
We have no open positions
His skillset is lacking a few key details
He worked with our new middle manager for 13 years
Our department is perceived as being a semi-autonomous unit, incapable of being managed from the outside.
The interviews are being pushed on people who don't normally interview, people who don't have anything good to say about IT.....

....and a few other key feelings that can't be summed in words.
