Every listing links to an external organisation. Diversity on Board is not affiliated with the organisations listed, does not act for any of them and cannot guarantee the accuracy of what they publish, so verify the details with the organisation before you act on them.

Using this board costs nothing

Searching the board costs nothing, and an organisation pays nothing to have a seat listed. Everything that can be verified is published in the open, which is how a recruiting board reaches candidates who would never arrive through the usual circle of introductions.
