New Wild Search Report on Portfolio Careers: Charting a New Chapter

As many people take stock of their careers and consider their next chapter, Wild Search is delighted to publish its latest report on Portfolio Careers.

Drawing on our extensive experience of advising on non executive and trustees appointments over more than a decade, the report is aimed at those who are either considering their first non executive role, or those who are seeking to combine a number of such roles following their executive career.

Based on a series of interviews with experienced chairs, non executive director and trustees, the report assesses the opportunities, challenges and benefits of “going plural” through appointments in businesses, charities, education and public and professional bodies. It seeks to provide helpful insights and experienced perspectives on how to identify, pursue and secure such roles.

Commenting on its publication, Edward Wild remarked: “2020 has been an unprecedented year of challenges for both organisations and individuals. Working from home and the opportunity to attend and host meetings online have become widespread and this may make a portfolio career more attractive. We hope that this report will be a valuable starting point for anyone who wants to join boards and build a portfolio. As all the contributors make clear, this is not something which happens quickly and time and patience are needed to secure the blend and balance of appointments needed to provide the greatest variety and stimulation. Paid and unpaid roles are usually combined and deciding how to balance them is an important consideration for many.”
