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.

Independent Director — Wastewater Asset Renewal
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
Candidates should bring senior utility, infrastructure, environmental or board experience with a practical understanding of asset renewal. The board needs someone who can scrutinise technical recommendations, financial constraints and service consequences without attempting to manage engineering work directly. Experience assessing investment under uncertainty is more important than familiarity with one asset type alone.
Member — Collegio Sindacale, Public Environmental Services
Italy·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public services organisation in Italy
This Collegio Sindacale role concerns an environmental-services setting where ownership, service obligations and management authority need clear separation. The member will contribute to statutory oversight as defined for the entity, rather than acting as an operational adviser or shareholder delegate.
Independent Director — Control and Risk Committee Member
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Integrated utilities organisation in Italy
The director will contribute to a control and risk committee overseeing utility activities. The role requires understanding how operating reliability, investment, finance, technology and compliance risks interact rather than reviewing each report in isolation.
Non-Executive Director for Tax Governance and Financial Transparency
Belgium·Business Services & Diversified
Audit and financial reporting organisation in Belgium
The director will contribute to board oversight of tax governance within a multinational enterprise, connecting tax decisions with financial reporting, risk appetite and commercial substance. The role requires informed challenge and the ability to recognise when specialist advice is necessary. It is not a tax-adviser appointment and does not confer authority to design or approve individual arrangements outside the board's reserved remit.
Independent Director for Resource Acquisitions and Capital Allocation
United Kingdom·Mining & Metals
Metals and mining growth platforms
A metals company is evaluating acquisitions alongside development of its existing portfolio. The board needs a director who can connect transaction economics, financing capacity and financial reporting consequences, helping management avoid growth that weakens the balance sheet.
Independent Director — Audit, Conduct and Value Agenda (Water and Environment)
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Independent private water and environmental services organisation
Privately and independently owned, this water and environmental services organisation wants an Independent Director who will spend 12 months making sure conduct and control matters come to the board and are seen through to resolution. The seat reports to the Board of Directors.
Chair — Collegio Sindacale, Multi-Utility
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Utilities organisation in Italy
The chair will lead a statutory oversight body whose work must account for different utility activities, shared functions and public-interest responsibilities. The objective is a clear, risk-informed programme that does not allow group complexity to dilute accountability.
Bank Director — Governance of Remediation and Control Investment
Poland·Banking & Financial Services
Banking organisation in Poland
This director will provide independent scrutiny of material remediation programmes and the investment needed to strengthen banking controls. The board requires a clear account of whether corrective work addresses underlying causes, whether delivery plans are credible and whether residual risks are understood while improvements are under way.
Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair — Resource Production
United States·Mining & Metals
Mining organisation in United States
Candidates should bring deep financial reporting expertise, audit oversight leadership and familiarity with United States public-issuer governance. Experience in producing resources or similarly asset-intensive operations is important. Formal independence and any financial-expert designation must be assessed through the applicable board process rather than assumed from the role title.
Non-Executive Director — Finance Leadership and Succession
United Arab Emirates·Business Services & Diversified
Corporate finance and capital structure organisation in United Arab Emirates
This director will help the board assess whether the finance function has the leadership, capability and resilience required by the organisation's plans. The focus extends beyond the credentials of a single executive. The board needs confidence that reporting, commercial analysis, treasury and control responsibilities have credible ownership and that critical knowledge is not concentrated in a few individuals.
Board Director for Retail Estate and Capital Allocation
United Kingdom·Consumer & Retail
Retail organisation in United Kingdom
The director will bring independent judgement to a retail board's decisions about store estate, refurbishment, distribution and digital investment. The seat requires evaluating how capital choices reinforce the customer proposition and enterprise resilience. It carries collective director responsibility and does not replace executive property or development leadership.
Independent Non-Executive Director — Risk & Technology
Hong Kong SAR·Technology & Digital Platforms
HKEX Main Board-listed platform business with mainland operations
The board's published skills matrix names cyber-security and data governance as gaps, and two long-serving INEDs fall out of independence during the nine-year transition period.
Non-Executive Director — Hospitality Real Estate
Italy·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Hospitality property organisation in Italy
The role calls for non-executive judgement over hospitality property investments, recognising that physical condition, operating arrangements and financing interact. The director should help the board distinguish durable asset value from returns that depend on underinvestment or optimistic operating assumptions.
Chair of Statutory Auditors — Audit Oversight Responsibilities
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Environmental services organisation in Italy
The chair will coordinate a statutory oversight body with audit-related responsibilities in an environmental-services context. The appointment requires precise understanding of the body’s legal remit and its relationship with the external financial statement auditor and other governance functions.
Nonexecutive Director for Infrastructure Finance and Investment
Kenya·Logistics & Infrastructure
Infrastructure funds and operating company boards
An infrastructure platform needs stronger scrutiny of investment models and funding exposure as it grows into new markets. The director will challenge capital allocation and financing assumptions while helping the board understand how project risks affect portfolio resilience.
Supervisory Board Member — Technology & Cyber Risk
Netherlands·Banking & Financial Services
Euronext Amsterdam-listed payments business
A supervisory board member reaches the twelve-year ceiling under the Dutch Corporate Governance Code, and the board's gender composition means the replacement must maintain the statutory one-third balance — an appointment that fails it is void.
Non-Executive Director — Mixed-Use Property Platform
United Arab Emirates·Property & Real Estate
Mixed-use development organisation in United Arab Emirates
Hospitality, residential and commercial components may support one another, but they can also conceal cross-subsidies and competing demands on capital. This board role asks whether the combined development strategy is more resilient than its individual components suggest.
Supervisory Board Member, Enterprise Technology Oversight
Germany·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare technology organisation in Germany
Candidates need senior enterprise technology leadership experience, including integration or transformation across multiple operating units. Healthcare systems exposure is relevant where it demonstrates judgement about sensitive information, workflow continuity and specialist stakeholder accountability. Broader commercial understanding is necessary to contribute to the whole board agenda.
Board Director — Omnichannel Network Economics
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Italy
The director will help the board understand the economics of an integrated retail network, including stores, digital channels and fulfilment activities. Strategic decisions should reflect how customers use the whole proposition and where costs are actually incurred, rather than reward each channel for reporting growth in isolation.
Independent Director — Infrastructure Financing and Capital Discipline
Kenya·Logistics & Infrastructure
Infrastructure finance organisation in Kenya
This board appointment brings infrastructure finance judgement to decisions whose consequences extend well beyond financial close. The director will test whether proposed funding reflects the asset's actual construction exposure, operating ramp, maintenance obligations and ability to collect revenue. A persuasive model is insufficient if the underlying contracts allocate risks to parties unable to absorb them.
Non-Executive Director — Hotel Ownership Platform
Saudi Arabia·Tourism, Hospitality & Entertainment
Hotel ownership organisation in Saudi Arabia
This board seat focuses on the performance of hotel assets over time: operator accountability, capital stewardship and the resilience of cash returns. The director must look beyond a favourable trading period to the expenditure and operating choices that sustain the assets.
Nominee Director — Controls and Stewardship (Energy and Utilities)
Australia·Energy & Utilities
Independent private energy and utility services organisation
A Nominee Director will oversee, for 12 months, a reset of delegated authority across the entities and committees of an independent, privately owned energy and utility services organisation, sitting on and reporting to its Board of Directors.
Non-Executive Director — Technology and Cyber Risk
Belgium·Energy & Utilities
Utilities organisation in Belgium
This board seat focuses on technology dependencies in a utility environment. The director must understand that business systems and operational technology have different constraints, and that a uniform approach to upgrades or cyber controls may create service risks.
Independent Director — Technical Debt and Innovation Investment
Switzerland·Technology & Digital Platforms
Software engineering organisation in Switzerland
The board seeks a director who can assess competing claims for engineering investment in technical renewal and new product development. The remit is to improve strategic judgement where management must choose between visible near-term features and work that preserves future speed, reliability or security. Neither category should receive automatic priority without an explanation of value and consequence.
Two sides of the same board
