Board


At Derwent we advise boards on optimal composition and capability through a balance of industry, functional and diversity agendas.

As boardrooms continue to change we discovered success comes from our ability to back the new and different.

Our outcome driven approach comes from a deep understanding of board composition, structure, duties, and responsibilities as well as our extensive experience across industry sectors.

Led by the most senior members of Derwent, each partner is an industry expert, proactively challenging traditional talent pools and looking ahead to make a difference through promotion of all forms of diversity.

Our board expertise includes the appointment of board members and conduction of board reviews across: ASX, Public Sector, Private (Private Equity), For Purpose and local subsidiaries of Multinationals.

Board Search – Appointment of board members. Our talent pools reflect two distinct communities: Professional Senior Directors with an existing board portfolio and aspiring directors currently holding senior executive roles.

Board Reviews – Board Reviews deliver impact through cyclical needs for renewal, business events (IPO), and a focus on skill, diversity and board effectiveness. Our agile methodology allows us to match reviews to focused business outcomes and needs.

Board Mentoring Program – New executive appointments or board members often need guidance on navigating successful careers in leadership. We facilitate trusted independent mentorships to further develop expertise and knowledge.

Pathway to the Boardroom – Our in-house directors training program showcasing the journey from senior executive to a board portfolio career. These Directorship events involve panel discussions led by professional Non-Executive Directors that share their stories of success and invaluable career insight.
