Incredible people shape great organisations. Great organisations have real governance

Director recruitment

For organisations

Our specialised director recruitment service is founded in our strong belief that recruitment of a director – as one person who has to work effectively as part of a cohesive, collective board – requires different considerations to executive recruitment.

Our experienced director recruitment team have a passion for people and a deep understanding of contemporary recruitment practices and what makes a great director.

With over six decades of director recruitment experience within our team we are able to draw on our strong networks to deliver real solutions.

We recruit exclusively for boards, board committees and advisory councils which is distinctly different to executive recruitment. 

Our key principles for board recruitment are:

  1. We connect organisations with incredible people
  2. We recruit for diversity
  3. We know board recruitment and work with you on real people solutions
  4. We are passionate about people and purpose

We search for directors through: 

  1. Discreet research; and/or
  2. Advertised director sourcing,

How we do it:

  1. Strategic Sourcing: We employ a dedicated recruiter for thorough research and sourcing, ensuring that your board member recruitment benefits from a strategic and tailored approach.
  2. Transparent Communication: Providing timely and regular progress updates, our communication strategy ensures you are consistently informed, fostering transparency and confidence in the recruitment process.
  3. Candidate-Centric Approach: With a strong focus on candidate care, we prioritize a positive experience for potential board members, reflecting not only positively on us but also enhancing the overall reputation of our clients in the recruitment landscape.

Candidates

Getting the right people on a board at the right time can be integral to the success of the board and indeed the organisation.

 

We believe it is important when considering your board career or stepping onto a board that you are able to answer these fundamental questions:

  • Why are you interested in serving on a board?
  • What skills, experience and other attributes do you think you can offer to a board?
  • What type of boards are you interested in?

Candidates seeking board roles are encouraged to register with Directors Australia to be considered for suitable opportunities.
