The problem this seat exists to solve

Can the business meet service and payment commitments when customer receipts, supplier demands or banking arrangements change unexpectedly? This director will help the board answer that question through independent oversight of liquidity and treasury risk in aviation services. The role is grounded in operating cash flows, not merely the size of reported cash balances.

Examine the dependencies

Review customer payment patterns, supplier prepayments, currency exposures and the timing of refunds or claims. Challenge management to show how these interact under stress. A disruption may increase payment demands at the same time as expected receipts are delayed, and separate reports can conceal that combined effect.

Assess concentration in banking and payment channels, including operational resilience and authorised access. Review the treasury policy and the evidence that it governs actual practice. Hedging or liquidity instruments should be understood in relation to the underlying exposure, with specialist advice where necessary.

Require an executable contingency

Ask management to identify warning indicators, decision owners and response lead times. Contingency options must recognise commercial and service consequences, not assume that commitments can be deferred without cost. The director should challenge reliance on uncommitted support or assets that may be difficult to realise quickly.

Candidate evidence

Candidates need senior treasury, group-finance or board experience in aviation services, travel or another relevant international service business. They should demonstrate judgement under liquidity pressure and the ability to interpret financial instruments without overcomplicating board discussion. Experience with multi-currency cash flows is particularly relevant.

This is a board seat with collective responsibility. The director will not execute treasury transactions, approve payments or negotiate banking terms on management's behalf. Any committee responsibilities will be agreed for the appointment.

The contribution should produce a clearer view of usable liquidity, more realistic stress analysis and timely decisions when conditions change. Independence from banks, brokers and advisers must be transparent. Candidates should be willing to support proportionate resilience investment while also questioning buffers or structures whose cost is not justified by the exposure they are intended to address.

Terms

Where the board sits: Geneva, Switzerland
Applications close: 7 November 2026
Appointment: Board appointment
Compensation: CHF 80,000–140,000 per year (indicative annual board fee)
Time commitment in this market: Typically 6–10 board meetings a year plus committees and a strategy retreat; SMI boards carry a heavier load than the headline count suggests.

Before you apply — Switzerland

No nationality test applies to a director. The company must be capable of being represented by someone domiciled in Switzerland, which an officer can satisfy — it does not have to be you or any other director.

Residency test: At least one person domiciled in Switzerland must have signing authority for the company (CO Art. 718(4)).
Nationality test: None.
Work authorisation: A non-executive director attending board meetings does not require a residence permit. Executive roles do, and non-EU/EFTA nationals face a quota system.
Tenure limit once appointed: No statutory cap. The Swiss Code of Best Practice asks boards to consider tenure in assessing independence and to disclose their reasoning.

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.
