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 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.
Adviser — Patient Safety and Quality Systems
Mauritius·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare quality organisation in Mauritius
This advisory mandate focuses on the systems used to identify, review and respond to patient-safety and quality concerns. The adviser should improve the reliability of learning and follow-through, while clinical judgements remain with appropriately qualified professionals.
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.
Interim Group Chief Information Officer — Integration
Sweden·Technology & Digital Platforms
Independent private technology and digital platforms organisation
Evidence, override and retirement: these three controls will govern AI decisions at an independent, privately held technology and digital platforms business, and an Interim Group Chief Information Officer reporting to the Technology Committee Chair will put them in place over 12 months.
Interim Regional President — Integration (Business Services)
United States·Business Services & Diversified
Multinational subsidiary — business and professional services organisation
Where the region competes, and where it steps back, will be decided over 18 months by an Interim Regional President at a professional services company within a multinational group, accountable to the Investment Committee.
Interim Chief Digital and Data Officer — Architecture and Value
United States·Technology & Digital Platforms
Private-equity-backed technology and digital platforms organisation
Reducing architectural dependency without halting delivery is a narrow path. A private-equity-owned technology and digital platforms business has 18 months to walk it, and is appointing an Interim Chief Digital and Data Officer to set the architecture choices, reporting directly to the Group Chief Executive Officer.
Interim Chief Executive Officer — Acquisition Operating Integration
South Africa·Business Services & Diversified
General management organisation in South Africa
Candidates should have held chief executive, managing director or substantial operating leadership responsibility through an acquisition or comparable ownership transition. Demonstrate how you protected commercial performance while introducing necessary controls and governance.
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.
Interim Chief Operating Officer — Omnichannel Fulfilment Integration
Belgium·Consumer & Retail
Retail and franchise networks organisation in Belgium
The interim COO will take executive responsibility for connecting stores, digital orders and fulfilment operations. The mandate addresses the decisions that fall between channels: inventory availability, order allocation, picking, collection, returns and customer support. Performance must be assessed end to end rather than through isolated departmental targets.
Advisory Chair — Operating Model and Delivery (Agribusiness and Food)
Canada·Agribusiness & Food
Private-equity-backed agribusiness and food systems organisation
Counsel towards one accountable operating agenda across its markets is what the Board of Directors of a sponsor-backed agribusiness and food group wants from an Advisory Chair, sitting at its side for the next 24 months.
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.
Interim Agricultural Business Integration Manager
Switzerland·Agribusiness & Food
Agricultural commodities organisation in Switzerland
Candidates need integration or operational-change leadership in agribusiness, commodity distribution or a closely related physical-product environment. They should demonstrate the ability to reconcile detail, manage competing priorities and maintain continuity while changing processes. Generic programme experience without understanding of physical transactions will need to be supported by strong relevant operating exposure.
Interim Chief Integration Officer — Post-Deal Integration
Switzerland·Funds & Asset Management
Family-owned funds and asset management organisation
Integration benefits that never reach daily operations are the concern behind this 24-month interim appointment: a family-owned asset manager wants a Chief Integration Officer, reporting to the Regional President, who will make those benefits show up in ordinary work.
Interim Director, Enterprise Data Ownership and Integration
Germany·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare technology organisation in Germany
Handover will include accountable data owners, operating procedures for priority flows, quality measures and a funded improvement backlog. Success means that the organisation can explain where important information comes from, identify when it is unreliable and resolve problems through established responsibilities. The interim director should leave sustainable governance embedded in business activity rather than a separate committee structure with little authority over actual decisions.
Interim Senior Vice President, Operations — Integration (Technology)
Germany·Technology & Digital Platforms
Cooperative or mutual technology and digital platforms organisation
Every end-to-end outcome at this member-owned technology and digital platforms organisation needs one clear answer to the question of which supplier or site is accountable. An Interim Senior Vice President, Operations will settle it within 12 months, with a direct line to the Group Chief Executive Officer.
Interim Chief Digital Officer — Utility Customer Services
Denmark·Energy & Utilities
Utilities organisation in Denmark
This mandate focuses on digital customer services where billing, account changes, service interruptions and enquiries cross several systems and teams. The CDO must reduce the uncertainty and avoidable effort experienced by customers while improving the operating process behind each interaction.
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.
Interim Country General Manager — Operating Readiness
Kenya·Business Services & Diversified
General management organisation in Kenya
Take executive responsibility for establishing the operating conditions required to deliver a country business plan. The remit connects commercial commitments with people, local suppliers, customer service, financial control and management reporting. Success requires a business that can fulfil its promises, rather than a launch supported mainly by central teams and individual improvisation.
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.
Interim Regional Strategy Director — Integration
Netherlands·Consumer & Retail
Multinational subsidiary — consumer, retail and distribution organisation
One strategy and transformation agenda for the region, led rather than merely drafted: that is the 24-month remit of an Interim Regional Strategy Director who will answer to the Board Strategy Committee of a multinational group's consumer, retail and distribution subsidiary.
Interim Chief Executive Officer for Consumer Business Recovery
Netherlands·Consumer & Retail
Consumer products and branded manufacturing
A sponsor-backed consumer business has lost commercial focus while pursuing growth. The interim CEO will restore accountability across sales and operations, rebuild management confidence and create a recovery plan that improves earnings quality as well as cash generation.
