Italian term
proboviro /probiviro
Italian to English
Bus/Financial
Business/Commerce (general)
NOT with the meaning of mediator/arbiter. I found the following definition of probiviri which fits my context: "Persone che godendo di particolare stima per la loro particolare onestà e capacità sono chiamati a fare parte di organismi di associazioni"
The sentence in my text is as follows: "Nella seduta del 14 aprile sono stati ascoltati: XXX, vice presidente della società italiana di XXX, XXX * probiviro * della XXX"
I was thinking along the lines of honarary member - any other suggestions will be gratefully received!

Italian term (edited):
proboviro /probiviri
Selected
Wise men
The term "proboviro /probiviri" does not translate well to areas of Common Law, and really does not exist outside of Codified Law. Frequently in business, "wise men" are appointed to adjudicate on matters of which they have particular knowledge or appointed by Governments to company or public boards for their nationally-known integrity.
Possibly, "Appeal Board member".
Please note the correct plural form.
