How it works

From profile to mandate in 4 steps

Discreet, structured, and secure – you retain full control over your data and decisions at all times.

1
01

Create anonymous profile

Register and enter your governance experience, industry expertise, ESG knowledge, and availability. Your name and identity remain completely hidden – encrypted, never public.

2
02

Complete the questionnaire

Our structured questionnaire captures your competencies multi-dimensionally: governance depth, ESG specialisation, personality profile, leadership style, and mandate preferences – the data basis for precise matching.

3
03

Receive match & decide

As soon as the algorithm matches you with a suitable mandate, you receive a notification with anonymised mandate details. You alone decide whether to express interest – without pressure, without time limit.

4
04

Mutual opt-in & contact

Only when both you and the company have confirmed interest are contact details mutually released. Full control on both sides – no data exchange without your explicit consent.

Benefits

Why executives choose MandateIQ

Headhunters know their network. MandateIQ knows the market – all mandates, all candidates, no bias.

The mandates you would never see

Over 80% of supervisory and advisory board mandates are not publicly advertised. Headhunters fill them from their personal network. MandateIQ opens this hidden market: your competency profile competes equally – regardless of whether you know the right headhunter.

Weeks, not months

Classic headhunter processes take 4–6 months. MandateIQ matches continuously and automatically – as soon as a suitable mandate is active, you receive a notification. No waiting times, no idle periods, no inbox ping-pong with a consultant.

Objective. Not subjective.

Headhunters recommend who they know – and who they like. MandateIQ evaluates based on measurable criteria: governance depth, ESG expertise, industry experience, personality dimensions, and diversity profile. No sympathy factor, no network bias, no information asymmetry.

Your data – and yours alone

Name, contact details, employer: AES-256 encrypted, never shared, only visible after mutual opt-in. No headhunter, no third party, no AI training use without your consent. Every data access is logged – viewable in your account (Art. 15 GDPR).

DCGK, §100 AktG & CSRD considered

The algorithm considers independence requirements of the DCGK and formal requirements under §100 AktG – for mandates you can actually accept. Diversity dimensions (gender, age, internationality) are systemically integrated.

You stay in control

No mandate without your opt-in. You see full anonymised mandate details before deciding. No pressure, no time limit, no obligation. Pause or delete profile: at any time, at the push of a button – with GDPR self-service (Art. 17 & 20).

Pricing

Transparent. Fair. No hidden costs.

An annual subscription for under €33 per month. Because quality has its value – and you deserve it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions from candidates

Everything you should know before registering – clearly and without fine print.

MandateIQ costs €390/year (equals €32.50/month) or €39/month with monthly payment. Annual payment has a minimum term of 12 months, after which the contract is monthly cancellable. Monthly payment has a 1 month notice period. Cancellation is possible at any time directly in the account.

Supervisory board mandates, advisory board mandates, and comparable governance positions – primarily in the German-speaking region. Crucially: most of these mandates are not publicly advertised. They are only accessible through personal networks or MandateIQ.

Nobody, without your explicit consent. Your identity data (name, email, employer, LinkedIn) is stored AES-256 encrypted. It only becomes visible when both you and the company have given opt-in for the same match. Every access to your identity data is logged – you can view this log at any time in your account (Art. 15 GDPR).

Headhunters recommend candidates from their personal network – subjective, relationship-driven, with a fee of 25–33% of first-year compensation. MandateIQ is an algorithmic marketplace: your competency profile is evaluated objectively against measurable criteria. No network bias, no information asymmetry, no commission.

The algorithm runs continuously and checks your profile against all active mandates – automatically, around the clock. Classic headhunter processes take 4–6 months. MandateIQ notifies you as soon as a match exists. Complete profiles are matched significantly more frequently and precisely.

Yes, both at any time. Pause: set availability to "Not available" – you remain registered but are no longer matched. Delete: submit a GDPR deletion request in the self-service area. After a short grace period, all personal data will be irrevocably removed (Art. 17 GDPR).

Included: full platform access, unlimited matches and opt-in requests, encrypted chat after mutual opt-in, GDPR self-service. Not included (chargeable on request): personal consulting sessions on positioning and mandate preparation with a governance expert.
