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.

Interim Chief Financial Officer
United Kingdom·Technology & Digital Platforms
Private equity-backed B2B software business, UK headquartered
The CFO has left mid-way through a refinancing and the sponsor needs a credible finance leader in the seat before lender diligence begins, with a permanent search running in parallel.
Interim Secure Cloud Migration Director
United Kingdom·Technology & Digital Platforms
Secure software delivery organisation in United Kingdom
Candidates require senior cloud migration or technology transformation leadership with direct delivery accountability. They need sufficient technical depth to evaluate architecture and operational readiness, alongside the ability to manage suppliers and business stakeholders. Experience in controlled environments is important; familiarity with a cloud platform alone does not establish readiness for this mandate.
Board Director for Retail People and Operating Culture
Italy·Consumer & Retail
Retail organisation in Italy
The director will contribute to a retail board with particular attention to workforce capability, leadership behaviour and the conditions required for dependable store execution. The seat requires understanding how incentives, workload and management routines affect customers and control outcomes. It is a collective governance appointment, not an operational human-resources assignment.
Interim Chief Financial Officer — Debt Restructuring
Netherlands·Industrial Manufacturing
Manufacturing organisation in Netherlands
The brief requires a CFO to translate manufacturing economics into a defensible debt restructuring proposal. The emphasis is on debt capacity, funding access and implementation discipline across the financing and operating teams.
Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair — Revenue and Settlement Assurance
United States·Mining & Metals
Mining and resources organisation in United States
Candidates need deep financial reporting expertise, audit committee leadership and familiarity with United States public-issuer governance. Resource sales, commodity-linked revenue or comparable industrial settlement experience is strongly relevant. They should be able to challenge both accounting assumptions and the operational evidence supporting them.
Independent Director — Audit Committee Financial Expert
United States·Water & Environmental Services
Materials recovery organisation in United States
This seat focuses on financial reporting in a materials-recovery business, where feedstock quality, processing yields, inventory and commodity exposure can complicate the accounts. The director will provide technical financial challenge within the audit committee.
Independent Director for AI Deployment and Enterprise Risk
United Arab Emirates·Technology & Digital Platforms
Enterprise technology and AI organisation in United Arab Emirates
When an AI-enabled service moves from experiment to material business use, the board must understand what changes in the enterprise's exposure. This director will strengthen that judgement while sharing the full responsibilities of a board member. The seat concerns the relationship between commercial value, operating accountability and risk, rather than oversight of technical novelty for its own sake.
Programme Director for Omnichannel Distribution Transformation
Belgium·Consumer & Retail
Retailers and wholesale distribution businesses
A distributor’s digital and physical channels compete for stock, customers and management attention. The programme director will align service promises, inventory allocation and operating processes so channel growth improves total network performance.
Interim Director, Enterprise Technology Service Recovery
Germany·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare technology organisation in Germany
Applicants should demonstrate experience recovering complex enterprise IT services across organisational boundaries. Healthcare environments are relevant where service disruption affects sensitive workflows, but the role requires broad executive judgement beyond incident management. Evidence should include resolving supplier disputes, rebuilding team accountability and presenting realistic recovery choices to senior leadership.
Board Director — Industrial Software Pricing and Contract Quality
France·Technology & Digital Platforms
Industrial technology organisation in France
The director will scrutinise the economics and risk of industrial software commercial models. The remit encompasses pricing architecture, contractual commitments and the quality of reported growth, especially where recurring revenue is accompanied by implementation, support or performance obligations that are not obvious from headline sales figures.
Board Director for Diversified Business Portfolio Strategy
France·Business Services & Diversified
Professional services organisation in France
The director will join a board responsible for a diversified enterprise and contribute independent judgement on portfolio direction, management capacity and capital allocation. The seat requires looking beyond individual business plans to assess whether the collection of activities has a coherent economic purpose. It is not an external consulting assignment or a mandate to run a business unit.
Board Director for Innovation Asset and Facilities Investment
Greece·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-interest investment organisation in Greece
The director will strengthen board scrutiny of investment in facilities and shared capabilities supporting innovation-led activity. The seat requires connecting physical assets with demand, access, operating cost and the enterprise's purpose. It carries full director responsibilities and does not substitute for technical project management or specialist facility assurance.
Adviser — Hospital SOPs and Administrative Governance
Indonesia·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare administration organisation in Indonesia
The adviser will strengthen standard operating procedures and administrative governance across healthcare services. The assignment should clarify how work is authorised, completed and escalated, with enough consistency for oversight and enough flexibility for legitimate local differences.
Independent Director — Agricultural Processing Investment
Netherlands·Agribusiness & Food
Agricultural commodities organisation in Netherlands
The director will contribute independent oversight of investment in agricultural processing capacity. The board needs to assess more than engineering cost and nominal output: raw-material availability, product demand, logistics, working capital and operating capability all determine whether capacity creates value. This seat is for a director who can connect those dependencies and challenge optimistic assumptions constructively.
Board Director for Digital Capital Allocation
Netherlands·Technology & Digital Platforms
Enterprise technology and AI organisation in Netherlands
The director will contribute independent scrutiny to digital investment decisions, ensuring that commercial value, operating risk and organisational capacity are considered together. This board seat requires the ability to challenge both optimistic transformation narratives and underinvestment that quietly increases fragility. It carries collective responsibility for the enterprise beyond the technology portfolio.
Non-Executive Director — Agricultural Trade Finance and Liquidity
Singapore·Agribusiness & Food
Agricultural commodities organisation in Singapore
The board seeks a director able to evaluate how agricultural trading activity uses liquidity and financing capacity. The remit connects inventory, receivables, collateral and transaction timing to the organisation's ability to meet commitments. Growth in volume or reported margin can increase financial vulnerability if the board does not understand the cash and documentation required to execute it.
Independent Director — Credit and Commodity Risk
Singapore·Agribusiness & Food
Agricultural commodities organisation in Singapore
This director will challenge credit risk in agricultural commodity trading, where counterparty quality, price movements, logistics and the control of goods interact. The seat requires judgement about the transaction as a whole, not reliance on a counterparty rating in isolation.
Adviser, Enterprise Technology Decision Rights
Germany·Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare technology organisation in Germany
Candidates require senior enterprise technology leadership or operating-model advisory experience. They should demonstrate an ability to resolve organisational ambiguity, facilitate difficult conversations and distinguish governance problems from capability or resourcing gaps. Healthcare consolidation exposure is valuable when it provides practical understanding of distributed operational ownership.
Independent Director for Pharmaceutical Investment Oversight
Greece·Public-Interest & Regulated Services
Public-interest investment organisation in Greece
The director will contribute to a pharmaceutical enterprise's board with emphasis on investment discipline, governance and the financial consequences of development choices. The role requires understanding how scientific evidence, operational capability and commercial assumptions interact. It does not confer responsibility for clinical decisions, product authorisation or specialist technical assurance.
Independent Director — Minority Slate Nominee, Energy Utilities
Italy·Energy & Utilities
Energy utilities organisation in Italy
The seat requires independent board judgement, financial literacy and an understanding of energy-service economics. Candidates should bring experience in utility governance, infrastructure, risk or capital-intensive operations. Eligibility must be checked against the specific nomination procedure, independence standards, integrity requirements and governing documents.
Interim Chief Financial Officer for Working Capital and Finance Improvement
Netherlands·Industrial Manufacturing
Mid-market trading, manufacturing or distribution businesses
A company is growing but cash generation and financial visibility have not kept pace. The CFO will improve working capital, restore forecast credibility and give the executive team a more useful view of customer, product and operating profitability.
Board Director, Trade Finance Funding Strategy
Singapore·Banking & Financial Services
Commodity credit and warehousing organisation in Singapore
A trade finance enterprise seeks a director who can challenge the relationship between commodity-backed assets and the funding that supports them. The appointment carries full board responsibilities and a particular contribution to funding strategy, liquidity oversight and credit appetite. The director will not arrange facilities personally or operate the treasury function.
Interim Chief Executive Officer — Scale-up
United Arab Emirates·Technology & Digital Platforms
Series B logistics-technology startup, DIFC domiciled
The founder is stepping back from day-to-day leadership to focus on product and fundraising. Investors want an operating CEO in place for the twelve months to the next round, with the founder remaining on the board.
Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair — Mining Services Contracts
Canada·Mining & Metals
Mining and resources organisation in Canada
The audit chair will oversee financial reporting in mining-related services, where work performed, contract changes and collection may progress on different timelines. The committee needs to distinguish realised performance from estimates that remain exposed to commercial or operational uncertainty.
