MSIF Mezzanine Fund - Non-executives

Non-executive chairmen (NECs) and non-executive directors (NEDs) are viewed by MSIF as very important in adding value to investee companies. We are always looking for more high calibre NECs and NEDs for our investments.

We are interested in meeting experienced directors and senior executives, whether they are looking for their first non-executive appointment or seeking to strengthen their existing portfolio of activities. Successful NECs and NEDs will normally:

  • Have held Managing Director or Chief Executive status in a successful business.
  • Have an excellent track record in creating shareholder value, ideally working on venture capital backed investments, with the gravitas and experience to deliver strategic plans quickly and effectively.

Have experience in most, if not all, of the following areas:

  • business growth
  • business turnaround
  • mergers & acquisitions
  • post-acquisition integration
  • joint ventures
  • strategy development, planning and positioning
  • international markets
  • Are based, or spend a substantial proportion of their time, in the North West.

Please note that we do not seek to place full-time roles through this route.

If you are interested in discussing a role as NEC or NED further, please either email info@msif.co.uk or write to MSIF, attaching an up-to-date CV and a detailed explanation of what value you would bring to an investee company, with examples from your experience.
