Important warning: Director recruitment scams

New Zealand directors are being targeted by increasingly sophisticated recruitment scams. If approached about a board opportunity, always verify the recruiter and the legitimacy of the role before sharing personal information. The IoD will never ask you to apply through an undisclosed third party claiming to act on our behalf. If in doubt, please contact us directly.

Our history

The IoD in New Zealand was established over 40 years ago as a division of the Institute of Directors in the UK. In 1989, the Institute of Directors in New Zealand (Inc) adopted its own constitution and became a separate legal entity.
