City of London Investment Group plc
Non-Executive Director and Audit Chair
City of London Investment Group Plc (CLIG), listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange, is a specialist investor in closed-end funds principally for US-based institutional clients. They were seeking an Audit Chair who could bring public company board experience and be based in the US and be near New York or Philadelphia.
In three weeks, Nurole surfaced Peter Roth. Peter was previously CEO of KBW Asset Management and Managing Partner and Co-Founder of JP Charter Oak Advisors Llc. He has over thirty years’ experience advising and serving on Boards of Directors across the U.S, with particular emphasis on corporate and strategic initiatives.
It was clear from the outset that Nurole had a clear understanding of our priorities, particularly with regard to the Anglo-American identity of our business & this understanding was reflected in their ability to put forward a list of highly-qualified & outstanding candidates from both sides of the pond.

Client
Nurole surfaced a very strong and long list within a month, from both the US East Coast and the UK, with diverse candidates we otherwise never would have found. The application itself requires candidates to do their homework, think through why they are right for the role, and the written answers provide very useful information to supplement CVs and interviews.
