Our Client
Our client is an award-winning, £5m turnover technology business based in Surrey, with 35 staff, established across the Housing, Local Government and NHS space. The business is growing significantly and is targeting a sale or IPO within 4–5 years.
The Chairman — an accomplished leader with a strong track record of taking tech businesses to IPO — is seeking an experienced Non-Executive Director from a software/technology background, ideally with strong commercial exposure to social housing and local authority markets (NHS exposure also welcomed).
The Role
Working closely with the Chairman and board (circa 1 day per month, plus occasional ad hoc strategy sessions), you will:
- Act as a sounding board and advise on operational and growth strategy, with a focus on the company's niche sectors
- Use your sector contacts and relationships to support business development, partnerships and strategic opportunities
- Help shape good governance and compliance practice for a software business operating in regulated public-sector environments
- Support the board in preparing the business for its next phase of growth, including the eventual sale/IPO process
- Identify future opportunities and risks as the business scales
