Our service has been designed with you in mind. We ensure we utilise all channels available to us to find you the right person, so you deliver on your impact and social imperatives. We believe they will require a balance of passion and alignment to your purpose and ability to harness their commercial acumen.
It really is about more than good governance, it is also the diversity of perspectives and experience required around the boardroom table to make it successful. We deliver individuals who not only contribute to the work you do, they also complement your existing board to round out capability.
Boards are setting the strategic direction of Australia’s for-purpose economy, making it critical that their directors are not only informed and technically capable, but that they bring a diversity of thought to the boardroom.
Structure follows strategy especially at the board table. Meaning if your organisation is looking to expand nationally or drive a digital transformation across your organisation, ask yourself, do you have the right people around the boardroom table to achieve your goal?
Board appointments are some of the most important decisions boards need to make and require an investment of time and the application of a considered process. With this in mind, we have refined the search process and spent years building a diverse and informed network of experienced and emerging purpose-led leaders for you to access.
People for Purpose advise boards towards operational excellence, behavioural integrity and strategic clarity through our governance advisory services. To complement this service, our board search and placement team also find you the right directors with the technical skills and connectivity to your strategic vision that is required to thrive in this complex ecosystem.
Our reputation is built on our passion, robust processes, sector knowledge and the quality of our service.
Purpose-led organisations
Register with us and we will contact you to understand the context and needs of your organisation. We will then research within our network and leverage our online presence to broaden the search.
Shortly after this you will be provided with a shortlist of screened candidates matched on purpose and values alignment, skills, experience and perspective (fees applicable).
We support you to conduct a rigorous interview and selection process where you may even meet additional candidates for future opportunities.
Individuals
Register with us and outline your areas of interest, skills and experience. If the needs of an organisation match your profile, we will contact you to progress discussions and ensure there is a cultural and values alignment. Once you have been shortlisted both sides will be given the opportunity to undertake the necessary due diligence required to assess fit and suitability.
As a member of our network, you can readily access our networking events, workshops, and current opportunities.
