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.

Board Member — Compensation Committee
Switzerland·Healthcare & Life Sciences
SIX-listed life sciences company
Members of the compensation committee are elected individually by the general meeting under CO Art. 733, and shareholders vote bindingly on aggregate compensation. The company needs a member who can defend its pay architecture to international investors annually.
Interim Chief Business Officer — Controls
Germany·Consumer & Retail
Multinational subsidiary — consumer, retail and distribution organisation
Dependable delivery against plan, held over 18 months, is how an Interim Chief Business Officer will be measured. The officer reports to the Investment Committee; the organisation is the consumer, retail and distribution subsidiary of a multinational group.
Interim Product Engineering Launch Director
Denmark·Technology & Digital Platforms
Software engineering organisation in Denmark
Candidates need engineering leadership experience with complex product launches and direct responsibility for operational readiness. They should show judgement about when to proceed, narrow scope or delay, and be able to communicate those choices under commercial pressure. Familiarity with cross-functional delivery is essential because many launch failures arise outside the code itself.
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.
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.
Interim Operations Director — Retail Availability and Replenishment
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Italy
The interim director will lead improvements in product availability across a retail network. The role connects demand planning, replenishment, store execution and stock accuracy, with responsibility for resolving the handoffs that prevent inventory from becoming a reliable customer offer.
Interim Regional President — Delivery Recovery (Agribusiness and Food)
Netherlands·Agribusiness & Food
Independent private agribusiness and food systems organisation
Leading the region of a privately held, independent agribusiness and food group through its delivery programme is the job of an Interim Regional President, who holds full executive authority for 18 months and answers directly to the Board of Directors.
Interim Director of Process Ownership and Controls
Norway·Business Services & Diversified
Operating model design organisation in Norway
The director will establish accountable ownership for enterprise processes where responsibilities are dispersed across functions. The remit combines operating improvement with control design. It seeks to remove unnecessary variation while making important checks dependable and visible. The assignment requires implemented changes in how work is performed, monitored and corrected.
Interim Chief Transformation Officer for Retail Productivity
Poland·Consumer & Retail
Retail organisation in Poland
Applicants should demonstrate executive retail transformation experience with implemented changes across stores and central functions. They must show how they balanced efficiency with customer outcomes and managed a programme whose original assumptions proved wrong. Strong frontline credibility and financial discipline are equally important.
Independent Non-Executive Director — Restructuring
Sweden·Consumer & Retail
Consumer manufacturing organisation in Sweden
A restructuring agreement changes obligations; it does not establish that the business has recovered. This seat brings independent scrutiny to the period when management must rebuild operating resilience, reset investment priorities and demonstrate that improved results are repeatable.
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.
Interim Chief Technology Officer — Integration
United States·Consumer & Retail
Mid-cap listed consumer, retail and distribution organisation
Services that customers and colleagues depend on must become more reliable even as the product and platform model changes, and over 18 months an Interim Chief Technology Officer, answerable to the Group Chief Executive Officer of a mid-cap listed consumer, retail and distribution company, will strengthen the first while evolving the second.
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.
Interim Programme Director — Operational Technology Resilience
United Arab Emirates·Logistics & Infrastructure
Transport and operational technology organisation in United Arab Emirates
Direct a resilience programme across operational technology used in infrastructure and logistics services. The challenge is to improve protection without treating long-lived equipment as ordinary office technology. Controls must accommodate vendor support limits, maintenance requirements and the consequences of interrupting a running process.
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.
Interim Chief Information Officer — Infrastructure Supplier Recovery
Denmark·Logistics & Infrastructure
Transport and operational technology organisation in Denmark
Assume responsibility for the performance of a technology supplier ecosystem supporting continuous infrastructure services. The work concerns situations where individual contracts appear satisfactory but the combined service fails at the boundaries: incidents pass between providers, maintenance conflicts with operating needs or an essential dependency has no effective support owner.
Interim General Manager — Commercial Commitment and Delivery
Ghana·Business Services & Diversified
General management organisation in Ghana
Lead an operating business where commercial promises, delivery resources and customer acceptance must be brought into closer alignment. The mandate concerns the complete commitment, from bid or quotation through fulfilment, invoicing and service support. The general manager will own the operating changes required to protect customer confidence and the economics of the work.
Interim Regional Risk Director — Risk at Scale
India·Agribusiness & Food
Independent private agribusiness and food systems organisation
One escalation model for conduct, operational and financial risk is the 24-month goal for an Interim Regional Risk Director at a privately held, independent agribusiness and food group, with the Audit Committee Chair as the reporting line.
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.
Independent Director for Development Finance Strategy
Malta·Banking & Financial Services
Development lenders and SME finance institutions
A development-oriented lender wants to expand its economic contribution while preserving credit discipline and financial sustainability. The director will challenge the strategy, product economics and evidence used to assess whether lending is reaching the intended businesses.
Interim Chief Operating Officer — Hospital
Nigeria·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Hospital operations organisation in Nigeria
The interim COO will bring operating discipline to a hospital, focusing on service reliability, resource coordination and management accountability. The assignment requires active leadership across support and administrative functions in partnership with clinical management.
Advisory Board Member — Governance (Asset Management)
Netherlands·Funds & Asset Management
Large-cap listed funds and asset management organisation
How conduct and control matters reach the board, and whether they arrive ready for a clear decision, will be overseen for 12 months by an Advisory Board Member at a funds and asset management group listed among the large caps. Its holder is accountable to the Board Chair.
