Quickly secured a role

I signed up to Virtual Non Execs after leaving my last full time operating role. Quite quickly, I secured a well suited and well paying advisory role. The team at VNE were helpful in guiding me through the process and it’s a great outcome that has more than repaid the costs involved with being a member. Highly recommend!

The power of a well-written CV

Not having had to look at my CV for many, many years, Virtualnonexecs offered the opportunity to have Neil Wright review and amend it. Thank goodness I accepted! I just listed everything I'd done whereas Neil took time to ask me lots of questions and see my experience and skill sets from a different perspective. When he sent me an updated CV, it was so impressive! Yes, it was everything I have done and accomplished but also the outcomes of what I have done and why. I would highly recommend this for anyone. Thanks Neil.

Ed is brilliant

Ed has been brilliant in getting me started on my journey to a NED/portfolio career. Would highly recommend anyone looking to explore a NED career to speak to Ed. A much better experience than some other providers in this area.

Ed was incredibly professional

Ed was incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout the process. He listened carefully to what I needed and offered thoughtful, tailored advice. A great experience overall, highly recommend working with him.

VNXD - Helpful and Relevant

VNXD clearly understood the issues and what I was trying to achieve. They gave good advice and guidance, rewriting my CV and LinkedIn profile to reflect my wish to attract Board Advisory and fractional roles. The cost of joining was much cheaper than their rivals.

Nothing short of IMPRESSED...

Since discovering VirtualNonExecs, I have been nothing short of IMPRESSED!
I was searching online for Non Exec Director roles and came across the VirtualNonExecs platform, which I very quickly became a member, due to the efficient and effective service from Day 1.
From the the reassuring, comforting, prompt follow-up call instigated by Michael, to the supportive on-boarding process which gained me a Members Spotlight feature in the VirtualNonExecs Digital Magazine thanks to Joanne Stubbs, the creation of a dedicated Non Exec Director relevant CV with Neil, to the monthly follow-up and action orientated and support monthly calls again with Michael, I have literally been wow'd.
It's early days as I have only been a member for just over a month, and still setting the essential foundations to successfully secure a role, I am hoping by my review, you can see just how much activity has happened in such a short space of time, and I have no doubt, with the on-going encouragement and support, that the platform will deliver my ultimate goal and objective to become a Non-Exec Director.
I am so grateful to the team, and very much have enjoyed and appreciated every step of the journey so far. Johanne

I signed up with VirtualNonExecs less than two weeks ago. Today Michael Wain gave me a whistle stop tour of the members area of the website. I now better understand the full opportunities available through my membership and am fully confident that I will gain lots of opportunity and experience. To get past the starting point I now have to update and refine my profile. I believe that it will be a very exciting and successful journey.

Mike is outstanding at not only understanding what it is I'm looking for, but also helping me to open my mind to new possibilities. Mike is exactly who you need on your team, in your corner and I feel lucky to work alongside him. Thank you for the continued support Mike!

Why I joined Virtualnonexecs

It's not easy to build trust in half an hour on Zoom but Ed Lewis did exactly that. In my introduction to Virtualnonexecs Ed was wise, helpful and practical. I came away with a clear sense of what the organisation offers to aspiring NEDs and what I had to do to start to improve my chances of landing my first position. Immediately after the call I received a summary To Do list and our relationship has gone on from there. I paid my annual membership fee at the end of the first call - a first for me, and a sign of the excellence of Ed's service and insights.

Virtual Non Execs are fab! …

I've only just started on my journey with VNXD's but the experience I have had has been brilliant! Blowing your own trumpet is hard when, if like me, you've never had to do it before, so having Michael Wain holding my hand and getting the best out of me whilst providing support, guidance and thoughtful critique and enhancements has been so helpful. My confidence in securing a role or two is fully restored, thank you, so worth the investment!

Building a NED profile

I recently joined VirtualNonExec after 17 years as a CEO when I decided to build a portfolio career of Chair, NED and Advisor. From the initial meeting with Edward Lewis, he has guided me through each step of building my presence, portfolio including profile, LimkedIn and a new NED CV. The VNEX platform is intuitive and easy to use and allows you to build networks and seek new role opportunities. The regular check-ins with Edward are invaluable and create momentum as we hold each other mutually to account to ensure we achieve the stated objectives. Edward makes it simple to maximise the value from the platform and his calm and informative style makes him easy to do business with.

Great service, professional team and clear onboarding plan.

I found Virtualnonexecs team very professional from day one I got engaged with them.

Originally it was around understanding how the platform and network/ecosystem works. Then I met Ed(ward), who was very clear in explaining what, why and how? Then quickly the benefits and also limitations of the platform. Ed made the onboarding and profile/brand development process easy with the support of clear iterative plan and regular check points.

Great service, Thanks!

If you are looking for sound guidance in becoming a NED

If you are looking for sound guidance, and a tailored strategy, this company would be a good choice. You'll need to do the work, but the tools and support they provide are impressive. A particular shout out to Ed Lewis, who is working with me -sound knowledge, good experience and keeps in regular contact. Rare qualities in this market!!
