Job Description

SelectionF

SelectionF exists to build and grow the leading community of female board candidates across the Nordic region. As the most exclusive network for board women in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland, SelectionF offers a platform where ambition meets opportunity.

Through a wide range of high-quality activities — including workshops, masterclasses, matchmaking events, and networking sessions — SelectionF supports members on their journey toward part-time or full-time board careers across the Nordics.

Our development model includes personal brand positioning, exclusive networking formats, board competence development, and direct exposure to chairpersons and executive search professionals. We help our members advance with the right skills, knowledge, and strategic support. Learn more at www.selectionf.com.

About the Position

We are looking for a part-time Chair/Country Manager to lead the local chapter of SelectionF.

This role is ideal for a dynamic, well-connected leader with a passion for networking, promoting female board leadership, commercial mindset, and staying closely aligned with the corporate governance agenda in their country.

As Chair/Country Manager, you will play a vital role in bringing the SelectionF concept to life in your market. You will lead local activities in close collaboration with your advisory board and with support from our central team (covering administration, operations and marketing). Your mission is to build a strong, engaged community of board-ready women and decision-makers.

You will coordinate with the SelectionF team to deliver membership activities and ensure a consistent and high-quality experience for all members in your country.

This is more than a leadership role — it’s a chance to shape the future of boardroom diversity in the Nordics. Purpose is to build and develop the leading community of female board candidates in the Nordic Region. SelectionF is the most exclusive network for board women in the Nordics. Remuneration is equal to a board position.

  • Strategic and Operational Balance
  • While you think big and act boldly, you also have a hands-on mindset. You are comfortable rolling up your sleeves to ensure execution matches ambition.
  • Passionate Advocate for Diversity & Inclusion
