CEO candidate profile template, one page
A CEO candidate profile is a one-page summary of a board-level candidate for a client or nominations committee: the leadership record, board and governance roles, the track record in numbers, and the consultant's view on fit. It is the document read before the full report, and often the only one the chair reads. This template holds it to one page, in the firm's brand, and Formatix fills the record from the CV while the consultant writes the view.
Chairs and committee members read profiles in the car and on the way into the meeting. One page, the same shape every time, with the numbers that matter and one paragraph of judgement, is what gets read. The full assessment report sits behind it.
10 free credits, no card needed. One credit fills one document.
An editable file with neutral branding and a fictional example candidate, to fill in by hand. Formatix fills it automatically from a CV.

Questions about this template
- What is on a one-page CEO profile?
- Name, current role and location; a short leadership summary; the track record as three or four measurable results; board and governance roles; the career in brief; education; and the consultant's view on fit for this mandate. Compensation and availability sit in a footer line if the firm includes them.
- How does it stay on one page?
- The template fixes the sections and their sizes, and the extraction prompt asks for the record in the number of lines that fit. Anything longer belongs in the full assessment report, which is a separate template.
- Can it be produced as a blind profile?
- Use the blind profile template for that. It has no fields for the name, photo or contact details.
- Is there a separate board-level or NED profile?
- This profile covers board candidates: its board and governance section lists current and past board seats and committee roles, and the track record and consultant's view follow. For a non-executive or chair search, ask for the governance section to come first and the template is rebuilt that way, or upload the board profile you already use.
- Can I download this template?
- Yes. A free, editable Word version with neutral branding and a fictional example candidate is on this page, to fill in by hand. To have it rebuilt in your brand and filled automatically from a CV, use it in Formatix; what you keep is an editable Word file.
- Can I bring my own one-pager instead?
- Yes. Upload the one-page profile you already use and Formatix turns it into a template with your fonts, colours and spacing kept.
