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 for Banking Risk Oversight
Ireland·Banking & Financial Services
Banks and specialist lending institutions
A lender is expanding selected business lines and needs stronger board challenge of risk appetite and portfolio concentration. The director will help assess whether growth, underwriting standards and funding capacity remain consistent with the institution’s strategy.
Independent Director — Turnaround Strategy and Executive Accountability
India·Business Services & Diversified
Enterprise turnaround organisation in India
This director will challenge the logic, feasibility and governance of enterprise turnaround plans. The seat is for an experienced general manager able to distinguish a credible recovery path from a collection of savings initiatives or optimistic commercial assumptions. It carries full collective board responsibilities and no executive mandate to run the turnaround personally.
Independent Director for Retail Supply Resilience
Netherlands·Consumer & Retail
Retail organisation in Netherlands
The director will join a retail board and contribute expertise in supply resilience, supplier relationships and continuity of essential operations. The remit is to challenge whether management understands the dependencies supporting availability and can respond proportionately when they fail. It carries full collective governance responsibility rather than an executive procurement mandate.
Board Chair — Governance Renewal and Integration (Logistics and Infrastructure)
France·Logistics & Infrastructure
Private-equity-backed logistics and infrastructure services organisation
Twelve months is the window to rebuild board succession around the work directors now need to oversee, and a logistics and infrastructure services business backed by private equity wants a Board Chair to lead it. The seat is accountable to the shareholders.
Board Director — Transport Infrastructure Investment Assurance
Ghana·Logistics & Infrastructure
Infrastructure finance organisation in Ghana
The board seeks a director able to scrutinise transport infrastructure investment through its full life, from construction and commissioning to maintenance and eventual renewal. Financial approval should reflect service obligations and operational reality, including the cost of assets that cannot simply be switched off when demand or funding disappoints.
Non-Executive Director — Public-Interest Financial Resilience
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
The director will contribute independent finance judgement to a utility or environmental-service board. The remit concerns whether service commitments, operating costs and investment plans are supported by realistic financial capacity. The board needs visibility of choices that may be deferred in a budget but cannot be avoided indefinitely in the operating system.
Investment Holding Company Director — Hospitality
Cayman Islands·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Hospitality investment organisation in Cayman Islands
Candidates should have experience in investment holding structures, hospitality assets or cross-border corporate governance. They need to interpret financial statements and financing documents, ask precise questions and maintain an independent decision record. The exact duties and appointment requirements depend on the entity’s constitution and applicable framework.
Supervisory Board Member — Technology Investment Value
Netherlands·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-service technology organisation in Netherlands
This supervisory appointment focuses on whether technology investment delivers the intended public-service benefit. The member should challenge business cases, organisational readiness and the evidence used to declare benefits after delivery.
Non-Executive Director — Risk Oversight, Warehousing and Collateral
Singapore·Banking & Financial Services
Storage and collateral services organisation in Singapore
This board role focuses on the credibility of services that provide confidence over stored goods and collateral. The director must understand how custody, records, staff conduct and release procedures can either support or undermine that confidence.
Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair — Audit Governance Establishment
United States·Mining & Metals
Resource sector organisation in United States
Candidates should bring audit committee leadership, substantial financial reporting expertise and United States issuer-governance experience. Prior involvement in building or improving a public-company reporting function is important; familiarity with resource businesses strengthens the fit. They should demonstrate the ability to prioritise control improvements without accepting unreliable reporting in the meantime.
Nominee Director — Controls, Stewardship and Integration (Banking)
Canada·Banking & Financial Services
Venture-backed banking and financial services organisation
Fiduciary duty sometimes has to outrank local operating preference, and someone on the board of a venture-funded bank must make clear where. That is this Nominee Director's work for 12 months, reporting to the Nomination and Governance Committee Chair.
Non-Executive Director — Tourism Investment Discipline
Saudi Arabia·Property & Real Estate
Hospitality and property investment organisation in Saudi Arabia
This board seat requires an owner-investor's judgement over tourism investments. The director should examine the relationship between expected demand, capital commitments and operating capability without relying on a broad growth narrative as proof of individual asset value.
Nonexecutive Director for Digital and AI Governance in Healthcare
Switzerland·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare providers and healthcare technology businesses
A healthcare organisation is expanding digital services and adopting AI-enabled tools. The director will help the board scrutinise value, operational readiness and assurance, ensuring management can explain how significant deployments are evaluated and monitored.
Chair — Collegio Sindacale, Environmental Services
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Environmental services organisation in Italy
The chair will organise the Collegio Sindacale’s oversight so that material governance and control issues receive timely attention. This is a distinct statutory office with responsibilities that must be confirmed for the entity; it is not an executive environmental-services role or a generic board-chair appointment.
Board Director — Governance During Ownership Transition
Luxembourg·Business Services & Diversified
Board succession and governance organisation in Luxembourg
The director will provide independent judgement during changes in ownership or investor influence that may alter board composition, committee leadership and expectations of management. The task is to help the board remain effective and accountable while its membership and relationships evolve.
Independent Director — Audit Committee Chair
Singapore·Banking & Financial Services
SGX Mainboard-listed regional financial services group
The incumbent audit chair reaches nine years within the next reporting cycle and must be re-designated non-independent under SGX Rule 210(5)(d)(iv). The board loses both its chair and part of its one-third independence arithmetic in the same meeting.
Board Director for Mobility Technology and Cyber Resilience
United Arab Emirates·Technology & Digital Platforms
Enterprise technology and AI organisation in United Arab Emirates
The director will strengthen board oversight of technology dependencies in a mobility or transport-services enterprise. The seat requires connecting cyber exposure with service availability, customer information and the consequences of operational interruption. It is a governance role with collective responsibility for the enterprise, not an incident-command or technology-management position.
Non-Executive Director — Media Investment Holding Company
United Arab Emirates·Media & Entertainment
Media investment organisation in United Arab Emirates
Media investments can combine intellectual property, distribution relationships, production commitments and audience-dependent revenues. This board seat requires scrutiny of those economics rather than treating the portfolio as a collection of generic operating companies.
Independent Fund Director — Private Real Estate
Cayman Islands·Property & Real Estate
Private real estate organisation in Cayman Islands
Private property investments may require years to realise, while investor reporting and financing decisions occur much more frequently. This seat focuses on the quality of oversight when valuations, liquidity and the timing of exits are uncertain.
Independent Director — Audit and Conduct (Technology)
United States·Technology & Digital Platforms
Private-equity-backed technology and digital platforms organisation
Who can actually commit the business? On the board of a private-equity-backed technology and digital platforms organisation, an Independent Director will spend 12 months overseeing delegated authority across entities and committees, with audit and conduct in particular view, and will report to the Board Chair.
Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair — Development Commitments
Canada·Mining & Metals
Mining and resources organisation in Canada
This chair will oversee financial reporting for mineral development where commitments, project changes and financing needs can expand faster than established controls. The central task is to ensure that the board understands the complete obligation, not only expenditure already recorded.
Independent Bank Director — Recovery Readiness and Board Decision-Making
United Kingdom·Banking & Financial Services
Banking organisation in United Kingdom
Candidates need senior banking finance, treasury, risk or restructuring experience and the ability to evaluate complex trade-offs under uncertainty. Exposure to a stressed institution or a substantial contingency-planning exercise is valuable. Applicants should explain how they assessed feasibility when assumptions changed rapidly and information was incomplete.
Non-Executive Chair — Environmental Services Governance
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
Candidates need substantial board or senior governance experience in utilities, environmental services, infrastructure or another public-interest setting. Prior chairing experience is valuable, especially where it involved different stakeholder groups and demanding investment choices. They should demonstrate independence, sound judgement and the ability to handle disagreement without suppressing it.
Non-Executive Director for Multinational Reporting Integrity
Netherlands·Business Services & Diversified
Audit and financial reporting organisation in Netherlands
This director will strengthen collective oversight of financial information in an enterprise with operations across several jurisdictions. The focus is the integrity of the reporting chain: local records, group adjustments, consolidation and the information used for decisions. It is a board appointment, not a group-controller role.
