Board Advisory & Non-Executive Director

There comes a point in every growing business where the owner needs more than a consultant — they need a trusted, experienced voice at the table. A Non-Executive Director brings independent judgement, commercial challenge, and senior accountability to a business that is ready to operate at the next level.

Wellpark Advisory offers Board Advisory and NED services to ambitious SMEs across Connacht. This is not a ceremonial role. It is an active, engaged presence — attending board meetings, challenging strategy, holding the executive team accountable, and bringing 16+ years of operational and commercial experience to bear on the decisions that matter most.

For many owner-managed businesses, having a Wellpark NED is the clearest signal to the market — to banks, to customers, to potential buyers — that the business is being run professionally and with appropriate governance.

  • Attendance at monthly or quarterly board meetings — prepared, engaged, and direct

  • Independent challenge of strategy, financial performance, and key business decisions

  • Support for the CEO/owner — a trusted confidential sounding board between meetings

  • Governance and accountability — ensuring the right structures and reporting are in place

  • Commercial perspective — bringing external market insight and operational experience to the board

  • Risk oversight — identifying and stress-testing the key risks facing the business

  • People and leadership — supporting succession planning and senior team development

  • Bank and investor relations — supporting the owner in key financial relationships
