Directorship Check
Verify a candidate's assertions regarding previous directorships
In addition to helping you satisfy all of your regulatory requirements, we may create a package specifically for your directorship checks, either on its own or as part of a thorough employment screening package.
What is Directorship Check?
A directorship check entails looking up a candidate’s prior and existing directorships. Employers that want to confirm whether a candidate has experience serving as a board of a company and whether there have been any related incidents might use this information to their advantage. These investigations can confirm if an applicant is or was a stakeholder or officeholder of a company.
Why Conduct Directorship Check?
There are many benefits of conducting Directorship check:
- Reduce any potential conflicts of interest brought on by a candidate’s present and previous directorships or stock ownership.
- Find out more about the candidate’s management abilities and experience, and confirm it.
- Find out if the candidate has ever worked for any businesses that are in receivership, have filed for bankruptcy, or have been deregistered.
Who should conduct Directorship Check?
We think that as part of a thorough hiring procedure, every company should perform Directorship verification checks.
When should you conduct Directorship Check?
When selecting new executive-level, managerial, and/or board-level staff for your business, we advise undertaking directorship checks.
We would also advise performing this check when elevating current staff to managing or executive positions.
