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.

Independent Director — Treasury and Financing Accounting
United States·Mining & Metals
Mining and resources organisation in United States
This director will contribute financial expertise to a resource-sector audit committee reviewing financing arrangements and treasury-related reporting. The role requires understanding of the economic obligations behind contractual terms and the accounting judgements they create.
Independent Bank Director — Conduct and Customer Outcomes
France·Banking & Financial Services
Banking organisation in France
The director will bring independent judgement to the oversight of banking conduct and customer outcomes. The board needs a coherent view of how product design, distribution, servicing and incentives affect customers, including cases where a commercially successful product may still produce unfair or poorly understood outcomes.
Independent Bank Director — Growth, Governance and Executive Challenge
Greece·Banking & Financial Services
Banking organisation in Greece
The director will contribute independent banking judgement to a board considering growth, organisational change and competing investment priorities. The role requires a broad view of the institution, linking commercial plans with capital, people, controls, customer outcomes and the capacity of management to execute.
Independent Director — Operating Change and Execution Risk
Luxembourg·Business Services & Diversified
Business transformation organisation in Luxembourg
The director will add practical delivery judgement to board oversight of major operating change. The remit concerns the connection between strategic intent, management capacity and the work required across functions. It is a genuine board seat for someone who can challenge execution assumptions while respecting the distinction between governance and programme management.
Independent Director for Investment Review and Capital Reallocation
Luxembourg·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-interest investment organisation in Luxembourg
The director will bring independent judgement to a board's review of existing investments and decisions about further support, restructuring or withdrawal. The seat requires separating loyalty to an original decision from responsibility for current evidence. It carries collective board duties and does not appoint the director as an external turnaround adviser to individual investments.
Independent Director for Blended-Finance Risk Governance
Belgium·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-interest investment organisation in Belgium
The director will join the board of an investment enterprise using capital with differing objectives or risk positions. The mandate requires examining the allocation of financial exposure, intended development or public-interest outcomes and the governance of potential conflicts. This is a board office with collective responsibility, not an advisory position on individual transactions.
Independent Director for Commercial Controls in Business Services
Germany·Business Services & Diversified
Audit and financial reporting organisation in Germany
The director will strengthen board scrutiny of commercial controls in a business-services enterprise. The seat focuses on how bids, contracts, delivery and financial reporting interact, particularly where local commercial discretion can create obligations that become visible only later. It carries collective director responsibilities and does not involve approving ordinary customer contracts.
Independent Director — Nomination Process and Leadership Continuity
France·Business Services & Diversified
Board succession and governance organisation in France
The director will bring informed challenge to the governance of board and senior leadership appointments. The purpose is to ensure that succession decisions are based on the institution's needs, credible evidence and a fair process, especially when stakeholders have strong preferences about particular individuals or backgrounds.
Independent Director — Retail Footprint and Capital Allocation
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Italy
This director will challenge decisions about retail locations, formats and investment. The board needs to understand why a site should open, remain, change or close, including its role in the wider customer proposition. Store-level profitability is important but cannot be interpreted without understanding shared costs, catchment and interactions with other channels.
Non-Executive Director — Media Investment and Rights Economics
Switzerland·Property & Real Estate
Hospitality and property investment organisation in Switzerland
This director will bring investment discipline to media holdings where rights, distribution and audience relationships determine commercial value. The role requires scrutiny of the cash-generating rights actually owned and the obligations attached to them.
Board Director for Management Reporting and Forecast Challenge
Switzerland·Business Services & Diversified
Audit and financial reporting organisation in Switzerland
The director will contribute to a board's evaluation of management forecasts, performance explanations and resource-allocation information. The seat requires distinguishing a useful estimate from a negotiated target and understanding how uncertainty affects decisions. It is a collective governance appointment rather than an executive planning or financial-analysis role.
Independent Director for Public-Interest Investment Governance
Belgium·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-interest investment organisation in Belgium
The director will join the governing board of an investment-oriented enterprise with a public-interest purpose. The seat requires balancing financial discipline, policy or mission objectives and the obligation to make decisions transparently. It is a director office with collective responsibility, not an external investment-committee advisory appointment.
Non-Executive Director — Infrastructure Fund Liquidity and Leverage
Luxembourg·Logistics & Infrastructure
Infrastructure finance organisation in Luxembourg
This director will bring financing expertise to a board overseeing infrastructure investments, with particular attention to the interaction between asset-level borrowing, fund liquidity and investor obligations. The role requires a clear distinction between attractive asset economics and cash that is genuinely available to the investment vehicle.
Independent Director — Audit Committee Financial Expert
United States·Mining & Metals
Resource development organisation in United States
The director will strengthen audit committee scrutiny as a resource project incurs material development expenditure. The role requires understanding of how project forecasts, funding assumptions and accounting conclusions interact.
Supervisory Board Member — Connected Industrial Product Stewardship
Germany·Technology & Digital Platforms
Industrial technology organisation in Germany
The director will oversee the commercial and strategic implications of products that remain digitally connected after sale. These offerings can deepen customer value, but they also create continuing obligations for support, security, compatibility and responsible product retirement. The board requires a view of those obligations that extends beyond the initial sales case.
Independent Director — Cross-Border Audit Coordination
Canada·Mining & Metals
Mining and resources organisation in Canada
The director will strengthen audit oversight where a resource business has reporting obligations in Canada and the United States. The role requires disciplined coordination of common source information, jurisdiction-specific requirements and the decisions each filing needs.
Non-Executive Director — Hotel Investment Platform
Spain·Tourism, Hospitality & Entertainment
Hotel investment organisation in Spain
Candidates should have made or overseen hotel investment decisions and followed their operating consequences. Relevant backgrounds include hospitality asset management, real-estate investment and board service. Experience with a weak trading period, operator dispute or major repositioning will be particularly useful.
Property Investment Vehicle Director
Luxembourg·Property & Real Estate
Hospitality and property investment organisation in Luxembourg
This appointment concerns a property investment entity with a defined purpose. The director must understand the vehicle's resources, financing and obligations and be willing to challenge prepared documents when the supporting rationale is incomplete.
Nonexecutive Director for Restructuring and Recovery Oversight
France·Funds & Asset Management
Private equity portfolio companies undergoing recovery
A portfolio company needs independent challenge of an ambitious recovery plan and clearer visibility of execution risk. The director will strengthen board scrutiny of liquidity, management capacity and strategic options while preserving management ownership of the turnaround.
External Director — Accounting & Financial Expertise
Israel·Technology & Digital Platforms
TASE-listed cyber-security company, not relying on dual-listing relief
An external director's second three-year term ends at the next general meeting. The Companies Law requires at least one external director with accounting and financial expertise, and that director must staff and may chair the audit committee.
Nonexecutive Director for Agricultural Trading Risk
Netherlands·Agribusiness & Food
Agricultural commodity trading businesses
An agricultural commodity trading business needs stronger board challenge of counterparty exposure, working capital and concentration risks. The director will connect trading growth with the financial and operational capacity needed to manage volatility and respond to emerging exposures.
Independent Director — UK–UAE Financial Governance
United Arab Emirates·Business Services & Diversified
Corporate finance and capital structure organisation in United Arab Emirates
The appointment adds independent finance judgement to a group whose governance must work across UK and UAE operations. The director will examine how performance, cash, commitments and risk are reported across the boundary, with particular attention to inconsistencies that can disappear inside consolidated totals. The objective is coherent oversight while recognising that operating entities may face different practical and contractual constraints.
Audit Committee Chair — Consumer Operations
United Kingdom·Business Services & Diversified
Corporate finance and capital structure organisation in United Kingdom
Candidates need substantial financial reporting and assurance experience, with the ability to interpret both detailed accounting issues and their significance for the full board. A recognised accounting qualification or equivalent depth of relevant expertise is expected. Prior committee leadership is valuable, but candidates must also demonstrate how they created challenge without undermining management accountability.
Independent Director — Minority Slate Nominee, Water Services
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Utilities organisation in Italy
This seat is intended for a director nominated through a minority-slate process. The candidate must be able to contribute to the full board’s decisions and exercise independent judgement, rather than treating nomination as a mandate to advance a particular shareholder’s instructions.
