We have many types of Board CV Support to suit the stage that you are at on your board journey, including on-demand learning, 1-on-1 sessions and webinars. We do not offer support with executive CVs nor a CV writing service, as we believe you are best-placed to unpack your board-relevant experience

Review our Board CV support here.

Our Resource Centre has advice and support on making board applications, including cover letters. Find out more. 

Unfortunately, we are unable to give advice on cover letters during 1-on-1 reviews.

If you are a Full or Directors’ circle Member, pre-interview support is included as part of your membership. Please contact us as soon as you know the date of your interview. We are not able to offer this service to Digital members or non-members for capacity reasons.

We run Peer Support groups at least twice each year. For the next group registration, please visit our Events Page.

If you are logged into your account and you are a Full or Directors’ Circle Member, the discount will automatically be applied at checkout. If you are a Digital Member, you can upgrade to take advantage of event discounts. Some events are only available to certain membership-types.

Many of our virtual events are, with the permission of key speakers, recorded and shared with all those who registered to attend the event.   If however, you are not happy to listen to the recording and wish to attend a live event, please contact us at your earliest opportunity and we can transfer your registration to the next scheduled event.  Unfortunately, we are unable to cancel your place at an event with less than 48 hours notice.

Many of our events are for Full Members of Women on Boards only, and we usually reach capacity at our in-person sessions.   If you wish to bring a guest, we would encourage them to register independently in order to receive any instructions or follow up materials directly.  Events which are open to guests have this indicated on the booking page.

We run a hybrid of face to face and online events as many people prefer virtual events for convenience. Our most frequent in-person events are held in London, and we run regular sessions in Cardiff, Edinburgh and Manchester.

You can access details on the events you have registered for via the ‘My Events’ page in the My Membership area. Joining instructions and any pre or post event information will show below the basic registration details. We will also email you with event reminders shortly before the session.

If you can not see the event you have registered for in My Events, you can cross-reference with My Orders records to verify if the transaction was successful. If you still cannot see any information, please contact us or call the office on 020 3925 4080.

You can view which events you have booked onto or attended in the past by visiting the ‘My Events’ page of your Membership section. We will update these records with any follow-up information or recordings.

Some of our virtual events are recorded and will be sent in a follow up email a few days after the event. The exception to this are in-depth training events and those that may sensitive content within the conversation. We do not record in-person events due to technical complexities. Where events are recorded, this will generally only include main content of the session and not the interesting and lively Q&A’s that happen afterwards.

If you are registering in order to access a recording, please double check if a specific event will have one available.

We do on occasions partner with organisations who share the same values and goals as us. Please contact us if you would like to talk about potentially working together. Please note that we already have a charity partner that we work with.

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer work experience placements or internships at this time.

Please contact us with a brief outline regarding who you are and what you would like to speak to us about and we will pass this onto our PR lead and/or appropriate colleague.  This is best done via our contact form.

Please see the ‘What we do’ page on our website. You can also view the ‘News’ page on our website for news articles, impact statements and projects we have been involved in.

WB Directors is proud to act as a Voice for Inclusion, advocating for the importance of diverse and inclusive leadership, both executive and non executive. This goes beyond gender, to advance diversity in all forms.
We do get a great many requests to support initiatives and campaigns related to these areas and need to be selective over where we can add value. Do send information to contact@wbdirectors.co.uk or contact us directly on social media.

WB directors does not respond to approaches inviting us to pay to participate in awards listings, advertorials or magazine features.

We do offer an option for someone from WB Directors to speak at events both virtually and face to face. Please contact us and let us know a bit more about your event so we can advise accordingly

We would ask our members to purchase items through our website using a company credit card and/or reclaim any eligible costs as work-related expenses, where possible. This is due to the increasing complexities of setting us up as an approved supplier with many firms and invoice timescales as an SME. However, we understand that for larger purchases this may not be possible. Please contact us if you need to arrange payment via an invoice. Please note that we can not normally provide services in advance of payment.

Although we prefer payment via our website checkout, we can in some circumstances accept payment by credit or debit card over the phone. If you need to make a payment over the phone, please contact us.

We have various types of membership to support you at whatever stage you are in your Board career. If you are just starting out or if you are actively looking to add to your portfolio, we would suggest a Full membership. If you are already a NED with experience on complex boards, we would recommend becoming a Directors’ Circle member. Full details of the benefits of each membership can be found here. If you are still not sure which is the best membership type for you, please contact us and we would be happy to talk you through options.

A breakdown of each membership type along with benefits of each can be found here.

Absolutely! We welcome anyone whose gender may have traditionally been a barrier to career success. Whilst our network consists predominantly of people who identify as female, we do have some non-binary members Our support is particularly relevant to those from groups who are under-represented at board level, and we pride ourselves on our diverse, supportive Network.

We price our memberships (and all costs) to be as inclusive as possible whilst still covering our costs as a small business. Our packages offer a saving against purchasing membership and key training courses separately.

If you would like your membership to automatically renew, please go to ‘My Membership’ and toggle the ‘Membership auto-new’ slider to ‘on’. You will get a pop-up window asking you to confirm. If you would like to unsubscribe from auto-renew, simply untick the box and we will send you reminders before your membership is due to expire.

This depends partly on the time of year, but on average we post around 200 new roles every month, with around 10 private sector roles advertised each month and 2 paid board roles added each day.

In 2022, 1 member every day on average found a role with the support of Women on Boards, either via our Vacancy Board or through their own networks. We would never suggest you *only* look for opportunities with us and continue to make use of your broader networks and contacts.  We are always here to help you do yourself justice as a candidate – wherever you found the role.

The contact information for the vacancy will be at the bottom of the page and for most roles, Women on Boards will not hold any more details than those listed in the advert. For roles flagged as ‘Bespoke NED Search’, we work more closely with the recruiting organisation and in this instance, our contact details will be at the bottom of the advertisement.

It is free to post a vacancy but we can offer additional support, tailored to your needs, at a range of price points. Please visit our Post a Position page to see your options.

You can post directly via a simple online form on our website (link above). This asks for some basic data about the organisation, the position, the selection criteria (or person specification) and contact details for members who may wish to find further information.
