AB Ignitis Group Launches Search for New Supervisory Board
AB Ignitis Group Invites Applications for Supervisory Board Members
AB “Ignitis grup?”, a prominent player in the energy sector, has announced its intent to form its new Supervisory Board following the end of the current members' term in late October. As part of this transition, the Ministry of Finance has initiated the selection process for six independent members to bolster the governance of this significant institution.
Understanding the Selection Process
The international search for these independent board members will be conducted by a selection commission. This commission is comprised of various representatives, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation to attract talent capable of undertaking the critical role within the organization. The representatives are selected from key governmental positions, including the office of the Prime Minister and the Minister of Economy and Innovation, among others.
Commission Composition
This diverse commission not only includes political appointees but also professionals tasked with overseeing the thoroughness of the selection process. The services of international executive search agency Pedersen & Partners will be engaged to ensure that the best candidates are identified and brought forward.
Key Requirements and Application Timeline
Interested candidates are required to review the criteria set forth in the announcement regarding the qualifications for independent members. The application period is scheduled until July. At this point, potential board members are encouraged to showcase their credentials and align with the Group’s vision and strategic goals.
Competency Framework
The candidates will be evaluated against a competency profile designed specifically to support the Group’s strategic objectives. This profile emphasizes qualities such as independence, expertise, and a commitment to the corporate governance principles laid out for state-owned enterprises.
The Importance of Governance Structure
Incorporating independent members into the Supervisory Board is vital for ensuring robust oversight and strategic alignment. The board plays an essential role in guiding the organization, approving strategies, and monitoring the execution of various initiatives. The current structure allows for a blend of independent oversight with necessary public sector expertise.
Advisory Committees
With the recent updates to the Guidelines on Corporate Governance, the Supervisory Board will also establish three advisory committees: Audit and Risk Committee, Nomination and Remuneration Committee, and Sustainability Committee. These committees are designed to support specialized oversight within their respective domains, thereby enhancing overall governance.
Future Steps in the Selection Process
The upcoming selection of civil servants for the Supervisory Board will occur later. This is part of the structured approach taken by the Ministry of Finance, which will facilitate the selection through an appropriately appointed commission.
Updates and Communication
AB Ignitis Group is committed to transparently communicating updates regarding the Supervisory Board selection process. All stakeholders will be kept informed according to established protocols and legal guidelines.
