The key advantages of a Non-Executive Directorship are many: there’s the prestige, of course, which opens the door to ongoing business opportunities.
But it can also be lucrative, and many Non-Executive Directors sit on several boards so the financial gain can be significant. For many, it’s part of a buy-out or retirement plan.
