Non-Executive Directors (NED)
Moon Executive Search handle Board appointments for Executive and Non-Executive roles.
We regularly get asked for expert advice and guidance on the Non-Executive marketplace, as well as working with executives seeking either their first NED role or seeking to extend their portfolio.
Challenge, Question and Monitor
The demand for non-executive directors has increased in recent years, and so has the need for business leaders to transition to non-executive roles or as NED and trustee positions offer attractive professional development opportunities.
The non-execs challenge, question and monitor the CEO and senior management; they bring an independent perspective to decision-making; they hold senior management to account; they also support and mentor the CEO and senior management. Here we look at why our clients hire a Non-Exec, trends in the marketplace, the typical background to hiring a Non-Exec, and what crucial skills a Non-Exec should bring to the Board.
We are pleased to showcase the Non-Exec’s that we are currently representing.
