Norwegian (Bokmal) term or phrase: i forkant av
Både Konsernrådet og Klubbene i Norge har forslags- og innstillingsrett til aktuelle kandidater som konserntillitsvalgt i Norge.

Klubblederne i konsernens norske konsernselskaper møtes annethvert år i forkant av det valg som skal gjennomføres på ansatterepresentanter til konsernstyret, og før forslagsfristen til kandidater går ut. På møtet velges konserntillitsvalgt av og bland de tillitsvalgte. Valgsresultatet og prosessen refereres til Konsernrådet så snart valget er gjennomført.

Explanation:
I think you're right on target with "prior to".

I think "ahead of" will work too, but I guess that's more US Engelish.
