In a rapidly evolving regulatory and economic environment, the right Non-Executive Director can be a game-changer for any organisation. At NED Capital, we go beyond simply filling a seat at the boardroom table—we focus on identifying individuals who add real strategic value.

Non-Executive Directors bring objectivity, independence, and deep sector expertise that can challenge and support executive leadership in equal measure. Their presence strengthens governance, boosts investor confidence, and introduces fresh perspectives critical to navigating disruption, digital transformation, and ESG imperatives.

Our extensive database and curated network of proven NEDs—many of whom are former CEOs, CFOs, and founders—ensure that we connect you with high-calibre candidates tailored to your needs. Whether your board requires a seasoned financial expert, a technology innovator, or a diversity champion, we have the insight and resources to deliver.

What Service We Offer

We recruit Non-Executive DIrectors and Fractional C-Suite Professionals

Trusted Experts in Non-Executive Director Search

At NED Capital, Non-Executive Director recruitment is not a sideline—it is our core expertise. We understand that today’s boards demand more than compliance; they require independent directors who are strategic, commercially astute, and culturally aligned.

Our team has built a reputation for delivering exceptional NEDs who bring clarity, accountability, and leadership to the organisations they serve. Whether your goal is to prepare for an IPO, attract private investment, expand internationally, or manage risk more effectively, we match you with board members who have done it before—and can help you do it better.

Each NED appointment is handled with a discreet, consultative approach. We support Chairs, CEOs, and nomination committees throughout the recruitment process, from role scoping and benchmarking through to shortlisting and onboarding. Our clients value our responsiveness, deep market knowledge, and ability to access “off-market” talent that may not be visible through traditional channels.

We also support diversity in the boardroom, helping clients broaden their candidate pipelines and build boards that better reflect their customers, workforce, and global markets. See our Resources page.

With decades of experience and a genuine focus on long-term outcomes, we don’t just make introductions—we build boardrooms that work.

If you’re looking to add independent expertise to your leadership team, explore how our tailored Non-Executive Director recruitment service can deliver the talent you need to thrive.

Boardroom Expertise That Drives Growth

At Ned Capital, we believe the strength of a board can define the trajectory of a business. In today’s complex, fast-moving environment, non-executive directors are no longer optional—they are essential strategic partners.

We work with forward-thinking organisations across sectors to identify, engage, and place high-impact non-executive directors who provide challenge, balance, and expertise at the highest level. Whether you’re scaling, preparing for investment, navigating transformation, or entering a new market, the right board leadership makes all the difference.

Built for Founders, CEOs & Investors

We understand the unique pressures faced by founders, C-suite leaders, and investors. Our role is to make your board an asset—not a formality. Through every engagement, we focus on:

  • Clarity – understanding your business strategy, culture, and governance needs
  • Credibility – sourcing directors with real-world experience aligned to your sector and stage
  • Chemistry – ensuring alignment between leadership styles, personalities, and ambitions

Our approach is collaborative, discreet, and results-driven. Whether you need a commercially-minded chair, a sector expert, or an experienced risk and audit committee member, we find people who bring insight—not just oversight.

A Curated, Confidential Network

Over the years, we’ve built a diverse network of non-executive talent that includes:

  • Former executives from FTSE, mid-market, and high-growth firms
  • Specialists in ESG, technology, finance, regulation, and turnaround
  • Directors with private equity, venture capital, and IPO experience

Every profile is individually screened. We look beyond the CV, assessing motivations, communication style, and value creation history to ensure the right boardroom dynamic.

Beyond the Appointment

Our commitment doesn’t end at placement. We remain a trusted partner to boards—offering succession planning, board performance reviews, and long-term advisory support.

We are passionate about improving governance standards, promoting board diversity, and helping clients navigate an evolving regulatory and stakeholder landscape.

Let’s Start a Conversation

Every board is different—and so is every search. Whether you’re looking to bring in your first independent voice or strengthen an existing team, we’re here to help.
