“Boardly introduced me directly to the founder of an AI startup that was a great fit for my experience. The community around Boardly brings together some brilliant people from across Europe’s startup ecosystem.”
“The future is the Boardly experience. You need someone, you speak to their AI over lunch for ten minutes, a brief is created, and you instantly see a shortlist of Europe’s top operators.”
“I’m approached regularly about Chair, NED and advisory roles, so for me the challenge is relevance rather than volume. Boardly cuts through that noise: founders can approach me directly where there is a strong match between what the business needs and the experience I can bring.”

A few good
questions.
Is Boardly free for candidates?
Yes. Boardly is free for candidates, including matching and introductions.
Can I join if I’ve never held a board role?
Yes. A previous board appointment isn’t required. What matters is relevant experience: having done the thing a founder is about to do. Boardly reviews applications before candidates appear on a shortlist.
What happens after I build my Boardly Profile?
When a founder’s brief matches your experience, Boardly introduces you directly by email, with Boardly copied in. There’s no feed to refresh and no obligation to pursue an introduction.
Which roles and companies does Boardly work with?
Chair, Non-Executive Director, Board Advisor and fractional leadership roles at venture-backed companies. Opportunities are mostly in the UK, with many in London. Explore the role types.
Will my profile be public?
No. Your profile is visible to matched founders only. There’s no public profile or announcement that you’re looking.
