Global ID Exchange · Live seats
Board seats, interim leadership and advisory — one board.
A director building an international portfolio typically holds a statutory seat in one market, takes an interim seat in another, and advises in a third. Splitting those across three products would hide two-thirds of the options, so they sit here together.
Statutory board seat
346A seat on a statutory board — independent, non-executive or supervisory — with the appointment formalities and the personal duties that go with it.
Interim leadership
456An executive engagement for a defined window: a CFO through a refinancing, a COO through an integration, a CEO alongside a founder. The fastest route onto a foreign board, because it puts you inside the market on the record.
Advisory & consulting
179A scoped advisory engagement — board effectiveness, governance design, shareholder engagement, controls readiness. No office of director, no appointment formalities, no statutory liability.

Advisory Director — Value Creation (Energy and Utilities)
United Arab Emirates·Energy & Utilities
Mid-cap listed energy and utility services organisation
For 24 months, the Regional President of a mid-cap listed company in energy and utility services will take counsel from an Advisory Director on the value cases and stop rules behind its transformation portfolio. The role reports to that Regional President and carries no executive authority of its own.
Advisor on Expertise-Led Service Portfolio Design
Germany·Business Services & Diversified
Professional services organisation in Germany
Applicants should bring experience designing or managing an expertise-led service portfolio and following its commercial results. They must demonstrate how client evidence changed an initial proposition and how delivery economics affected the final choice. Strong candidates understand the cultural implications of retiring a service associated with an influential professional.
Adviser — Hospital Supply and Resource Readiness
Kenya·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare continuity organisation in Kenya
The adviser will assess supply and resource readiness across healthcare operations. The mandate is to reduce avoidable interruption by understanding demand, procurement lead times, storage, equipment dependencies and the operational consequences of unavailable items.
Advisory Director — Capital and Performance (Mining and Metals)
United States·Mining & Metals
Family-owned mining and metals organisation
Cash and performance discipline is what the Board of Directors of this family-owned mining and metals business wants to build over 24 months, and an Advisory Director reporting to that board will counsel it there.
Adviser — Public-Service Data Ownership
Belgium·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-service technology organisation in Belgium
The adviser will establish practical data ownership where public-service processes depend on information created and corrected by different teams. The aim is to make data usable for operating decisions and accountability, rather than produce a catalogue that nobody maintains.
Advisor on Post-Acquisition Operating Integration
Norway·Business Services & Diversified
Operating model design organisation in Norway
The advisor will help leadership determine how acquired operations should connect to the wider enterprise. The work concerns operating choices: which capabilities should become common, which should remain distinct and what must be protected while leaders learn how the businesses function. Integration recommendations must follow the investment rationale and customer economics rather than a predetermined degree of consolidation.
Adviser — Commodity Fraud and Control Frameworks
Singapore·Logistics & Infrastructure
Trading and storage organisation in Singapore
The adviser will assess fraud exposure across commodity trading and storage processes. The brief is to strengthen prevention, detection and escalation without treating every operational discrepancy as misconduct or relying on a checklist detached from how transactions actually work.
Adviser — Healthcare Delivery and Capacity Planning
Philippines·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare services organisation in Philippines
The adviser will assess healthcare delivery capacity using the timing, mix and variability of demand. The objective is to identify realistic service improvements and investment needs without equating higher utilisation with better performance in every setting.
Advisory Chair — Operating Model and Delivery (Education)
United States·Education
Cooperative or mutual education and learning services organisation
How much cash to protect this year, and how much capacity to build for later? An Advisory Chair will help the Board Chair, to whom the role reports, answer that over 12 months for a mutual in education and learning services, offering counsel rather than direction.
Adviser — Working-Capital Recovery in Project Manufacturing
Italy·Business Services & Diversified
Restructuring and turnaround organisation in Italy
The adviser will investigate working-capital pressure in manufacturing where customer-specific work, milestones and changes affect billing and collection. The assignment requires understanding the commercial and production process behind the balance sheet.
Adviser — Hospital Commissioning and Workforce Readiness
Vietnam·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare commissioning organisation in Vietnam
This advisory mandate connects hospital commissioning with recruitment, role clarity, training and deployment. The task is to assess whether people and operating processes will be ready when facilities and equipment become available.
Advisory Director — Value Creation (Regulated Services)
United Kingdom·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Venture-backed public-interest and regulated services organisation
Backed by venture investors, a public-interest and regulated services organisation wants an Advisory Director, Value Creation, to counsel its Board Strategy Committee for 24 months on tying programme benefits to operating evidence.
Adviser — Engineering Reliability and Customer Commitments
Ireland·Technology & Digital Platforms
Software engineering organisation in Ireland
The adviser will assess the gap between customer commitments and engineering reliability. The assignment examines how availability promises, release plans, incident response and support arrangements interact. Its purpose is to give leadership a defensible improvement plan and a clearer basis for future commitments, rather than a generic maturity score.
Advisory Director — Value Creation and Integration
Sweden·Industrial Manufacturing
Cooperative or mutual industrial manufacturing organisation
Portfolio choices at this member-owned industrial manufacturer must be settled within 24 months, and its Investment Committee wants experienced counsel at the table while it does. The Advisory Director reports to that committee and advises it; every decision stays with the committee.
Advisor on Technology Supplier Concentration
Kenya·Technology & Digital Platforms
Enterprise technology and AI organisation in Kenya
The advisor will evaluate concentration and substitutability across critical technology suppliers. The engagement covers the business consequences of provider failure, service deterioration or loss of access, including dependencies hidden in subcontracting and common platforms. The purpose is to recommend proportionate actions that improve control without creating unnecessary operational complexity.
Adviser — Deep Technology Founder-to-Board Transition
United States·Technology & Digital Platforms
Deep technology and semiconductors organisation in United States
The adviser will help a technology business establish effective working arrangements between founding expertise, executive responsibility and board oversight. The assignment concerns decision rights, information and escalation as the organisation becomes more complex. It is not a personal coaching mandate alone, nor a request to impose a standard governance model regardless of the business's stage.
Advisory Director, Capital and Performance — Integration
United States·Banking & Financial Services
Mid-cap listed banking and financial services organisation
Which of its commitments survive the downside case is the question a banking and financial services organisation listed in the mid-cap segment wants tested over 24 months by an Advisory Director, Capital and Performance, whose reporting line is the Group Chief Executive Officer.
Finance Function Design Adviser
United Kingdom·Business Services & Diversified
Corporate finance and capital structure organisation in United Kingdom
The adviser will redesign the finance operating model around the information and control requirements of a multi-business organisation. The assignment is not to draw a new organisation chart first. It begins by identifying which decisions are currently delayed, poorly evidenced or repeatedly corrected, and then examining the processes, systems and responsibilities that produce those outcomes.
Senior Adviser for Commodity Trade Operations Improvement
Singapore·Agribusiness & Food
Agricultural commodity merchants and distributors
A commodity trading operation needs to reduce errors and cash delays between contract agreement and settlement. The adviser will work across trade execution, logistics and finance to isolate recurring failures, test practical improvements and give operating teams a process they can sustain.
Advisory Chair — Operating Model and Integration
United States·Technology & Digital Platforms
Venture-backed technology and digital platforms organisation
After an integration, several people can each be sure the same decision is theirs. For 12 months an Advisory Chair will counsel the Board of Directors of a venture-backed technology and digital platforms organisation on leadership structure and decision ownership.
Advisory Director — Network Performance Renewal
Canada·Industrial Manufacturing
Private-equity-backed industrial manufacturing organisation
Automation should follow stable process ownership, not precede it. Guiding that sequence for a private-equity-backed industrial manufacturer is a 24-month advisory seat, in which the Advisory Director counsels the Country Managing Director.
Advisory Director — Technology Value (Logistics and Infrastructure)
Switzerland·Logistics & Infrastructure
Private-equity-backed logistics and infrastructure services organisation
Delivery has to stay reliable while the product and platform model changes. A logistics and infrastructure services business backed by private equity wants an Advisory Director to give that counsel to its Technology Committee Chair, to whom the role reports, across 24 months.
Advisor on Luxury Hotel Distribution and Demand Quality
Italy·Tourism, Hospitality & Entertainment
Luxury hospitality organisation in Italy
Candidates should have substantial hospitality commercial or revenue leadership experience with a grounded understanding of operations. They must explain a case where the most visible revenue opportunity was not the most valuable business. Strong candidates can reconcile channel analysis with guest experience and the property's long-term positioning.
Adviser — Emergency and Disaster Medical Preparedness
Morocco·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare preparedness organisation in Morocco
The adviser will assess preparedness for events that place unusual pressure on healthcare services. The assignment concerns coordination, resource readiness and operational continuity, with clinical response protocols and professional decisions reserved to qualified, authorised leaders.
