Global ID Exchange · Live seats
Seats in Italy.
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.

Nominee Director — Controls and Stewardship (Banking)
Italy·Banking & Financial Services
Non-profit banking and financial services organisation
A board hears dissent best before a decision closes, not after. Over a 12-month term, this Nominee Director will strengthen how the board of a bank run on a not-for-profit basis hears and weighs it, reporting to the Nomination and Governance Committee Chair.
Independent Director — Audit, Conduct and Renewal (Water and Environment)
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Cooperative or mutual water and environmental services organisation
This member-owned water and environmental services organisation is adding an Independent Director whose 12-month task is to strengthen the evidence its directors rely on. The director's reporting line is to the Board Chair.
Interim Country Managing Director — Value Agenda (Consumer and Retail)
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Independent private consumer, retail and distribution organisation
Where should the business compete, and where should it step back? An Interim Country Managing Director has 12 months to set that out for an independent, privately owned consumer, retail and distribution organisation, reporting to the Board Chair.
Advisory Director — Capital and Performance (Business Services)
Italy·Business Services & Diversified
Cooperative or mutual business and professional services organisation
Some commitments will not survive a downside case. Over 18 months, an Advisory Director will counsel the Group Chief Financial Officer, to whom the role reports, on which ones, for a professional services business owned by its members.
Non-Executive Director — Service Performance and Customer Accountability
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
Candidates need senior service, utility, operations or board experience, with evidence of using performance information to improve accountability. They should be able to interpret data and listen critically to qualitative evidence. Experience engaging stakeholders is useful when it supports sound governance rather than substituting visibility for results.
Interim Chief Executive Officer — Operating Agenda
Italy·Logistics & Infrastructure
Independent private logistics and infrastructure services organisation
Market by market, local plans need to become one accountable operating agenda. The Board of Directors of an independent, privately owned logistics and infrastructure services business is appointing an Interim Chief Executive Officer, reporting to it, to lead that agenda for 24 months.
Independent Director — Industrial Service Business Transformation
Italy·Technology & Digital Platforms
Industrial technology organisation in Italy
The director will help the board evaluate the transition from one-off technology sales towards lifecycle services and recurring commercial relationships. The challenge is to determine where such a model creates defensible customer value and where it simply transfers operating or performance risk to the provider without adequate return.
Nominee Director — Controls and Stewardship (Water and Environment)
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Private-equity-backed water and environmental services organisation
Nobody should be able to commit money without clear delegated authority, across every entity and committee. A water and environmental services business backed by private equity is seating a Nominee Director, reporting to the Board of Directors, to bring that clarity within 12 months.
Succession Adviser — Internal Leadership Bench Assessment
Italy·Business Services & Diversified
Board succession and governance organisation in Italy
The adviser will assess the depth and readiness of internal leadership successors for roles that matter to organisational continuity. The assignment requires careful judgement about evidence, context and development potential. It must not turn a succession discussion into an implied appointment commitment or a popularity exercise.
Retail Network Adviser — Format and Catchment Differentiation
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Italy
The adviser will assess whether a network's formats and operating standards reflect the customers and catchments they serve. The assignment requires an evidence-based view of where consistency creates value and where uniformity imposes cost or weakens relevance.
Interim Group Chief Strategy Officer — Benefits Recovery
Italy·Banking & Financial Services
Cooperative or mutual banking and financial services organisation
Benefits promised by a member-owned bank's strategic programme must appear in day-to-day operations within 24 months. An Interim Group Chief Strategy Officer, reporting to the Board Strategy Committee, will make sure they do.
Chair — Organismo di Vigilanza, Multi-Utility
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Utilities organisation in Italy
Candidates should have deep experience in 231 compliance, assurance, legal risk or governance, with evidence of chairing a multidisciplinary oversight body. They need the ability to challenge senior stakeholders constructively and maintain clear records. Independence, conflicts, competence and capacity must be assessed for the actual appointment and body composition.
Member — Organismo di Vigilanza, Electricity Distribution
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Energy networks organisation in Italy
This supervisory-body role focuses on the working effectiveness of a 231/2001 model in an electricity-distribution setting. The appointee should understand how technical activity, urgent works and contractor relationships can create compliance exposures even where engineering performance appears satisfactory.
Member — Collegio Sindacale, Water Services
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water services organisation in Italy
This appointment is to the Collegio Sindacale, not an ordinary non-executive board seat. The member will contribute to the body’s statutory oversight, with the exact responsibilities established for the entity’s legal form, governing documents and applicable framework.
Interim Chief Operating Officer — Retail Network Performance
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Italy
The interim chief operating officer will take responsibility for improving performance across a retail network. The assignment requires a location-level understanding of demand, service, staffing and cost, followed by decisions that improve the network as a whole. It is not a uniform cost-reduction exercise applied indiscriminately to every site.
Interim Country Head of Finance — Renewal
Italy·Funds & Asset Management
Mid-cap listed funds and asset management organisation
Reporting quality and the decisions finance is expected to challenge are to be connected over 12 months by an Interim Country Head of Finance, who reports straight to the Board of Directors of a funds and asset management firm quoted on a mid-cap market.
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.
Independent Director — Environmental Infrastructure Partnerships
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
Candidates need senior infrastructure, utility, commercial or board experience with partnerships or joint delivery arrangements. They should demonstrate the ability to evaluate incentives and follow agreements into operation. Experience resolving an underperforming arrangement is valuable when it shows disciplined choices and attention to service continuity.
Non-Executive Director — Utility Continuity and Emergency Readiness
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
Candidates should have senior utility, infrastructure, operational risk or board experience with responsibility for continuity or major incidents. They need sound judgement under uncertainty and the ability to interpret specialist advice. A record of improving preparedness after real events or demanding exercises is particularly useful.
Independent Director — Procurement and Contract Oversight
Italy·Water & Environmental Services
Water and environmental services organisation in Italy
The director will strengthen governance of procurement and major contracts in utility or environmental services. The remit is to assess whether significant commitments support service needs, manage dependencies and provide a clear basis for accountability. It does not involve conducting procurement procedures or replacing the advice of authorised legal and procurement specialists.
Interim Retail Director — Store Leadership and Regional Accountability
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Italy
The interim retail director will lead the store organisation and improve the way regional leaders support, challenge and coordinate site managers. The assignment requires operating accountability, with particular attention to recurring issues that remain unresolved because central, regional and local responsibilities overlap.
Interim Regional Strategy Director — Renewal
Italy·Business Services & Diversified
Family-owned business and professional services organisation
Turning strategic intent into a sequence the business can absorb is what the Investment Committee of a family-held business and professional services organisation expects of its Interim Regional Strategy Director over 24 months.
Interim Transformation Executive — Integration (Energy and Utilities)
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Private-equity-backed energy and utility services organisation
Transformation benefits that show up in day-to-day operations, not only in programme reports: over 24 months, that is what a private-equity-owned energy and utility services company expects of its Interim Transformation Executive, who reports to the Investment Committee.
Independent Director — Audit and Conduct (Asset Management)
Italy·Funds & Asset Management
Venture-backed funds and asset management organisation
Board succession that keeps pace with the work its portfolio requires is what a venture-backed funds and asset management firm asks its new Independent Director to oversee over 12 months. The director will be accountable to the Board Chair.
