Non-Executive Director — Energy Transition

Australia·Energy & Utilities··Posted 3 September 2026

ASX 200 energy and utilities business

The problem this seat exists to solve

The board is majority independent as the ASX Principles recommend, but has no director who has governed a large-scale generation or grid transition in another market. Two directors approach the ten-year point at which Box 2.3 requires independence to be reassessed.

The remit

Bring governance experience of a completed energy transition programme
Serve on the risk or sustainability committee
Test capital allocation between legacy assets and transition investment
Support the board through a scheduled renewal of two long-serving directors

What the sponsor will not compromise on

Board or executive experience in generation, transmission or regulated utilities
Direct exposure to a transition programme in a market that has completed one
Eligibility to obtain an Australian Director Identification Number
Availability for 9–11 board meetings a year plus committees and site visits

Terms

Engagement: Three-year term, subject to rotation and re-election under the constitution.
Compensation: AUD 160,000 – 210,000 a year including committee fees.
Cross-border: The board retains its two Australian-resident directors under Corporations Act s.201A(2), so a non-resident appointment is available on this board.
Time commitment in this market: Typically 8–11 board meetings a year plus committee cycles and a strategy offsite; site visits are expected in resources and infrastructure.

Before you apply — Australia

No nationality test applies to you. The board must keep two Australian-resident directors, so a foreign appointment is a decision about the board's whole composition rather than about you alone.

Residency test: At least two of the three minimum directors of a public company must ordinarily reside in Australia (Corporations Act s.201A(2)). On a larger listed board this is rarely binding, but on a smaller one it can be the reason a foreign candidate is declined.
Nationality test: None.
Work authorisation: A non-resident non-executive director attending board meetings does not require a work visa. An executive or interim operating role requires a Subclass 482 or equivalent.
Tenure limit once appointed: No hard cap. Box 2.3 of the ASX Principles treats service of more than ten years as a factor that may compromise independence, requiring the board to satisfy itself and disclose its reasoning.

The full Australia regime map

How this works

Every seat here is applied for by a certified director.

That is the whole difference. A sponsor reading applications from this Exchange knows the pool has been tested — which is why the briefs are real and why an application gets read. Five steps, and the first three are free.

1
Register — free
Read every brief, every regime map and both tools. Nothing is hidden behind the paywall and nothing ever has been. You can apply straight away — one application a fortnight.
2
Sit the assessment — free, about 30 minutes
15 judgement questions on statutory duty, your functional depth and cross-border practice. Sitting it costs nothing and you see your band and a gap report either way — so you learn something about your own standing whether or not you go further.
3
Pass, and you are certified — free, for 12 months
There is no fee to certify. A certified member applies to board, interim and advisory seats, one application a week. That alone is more than most directors act on in a quarter.
4
Then, if you want the rate — Foresight InfinityUS$250 a month
Your application is collated, verified against your profile and carried to the sponsor every week instead of waiting out the seat’s priority period — and we search for you rather than waiting for you to look. Foresight Infinity Plus, US$500 a month, is carried first, the moment it is matched, with a document written for that seat and your score attached.
Monthly only — there is no annual term on either. One payment a month; nothing renews on its own.
5
Your certificate and your membership are not the same thing
The certificate runs 12 months. A membership renews every month. If you stop paying you do not go back to the beginning — you keep the certificate you earned and return to one application a week until it expires.
