nomina
appointment, nomination (to a post)

⚠️ The trap
Related to ff-mn-004 ('nominare'). 'Nomina' is the noun form, leaning toward the completed act of appointment rather than the process of putting someone forward.
To say "to propose as a candidate" in Italian:
candidatura (for act of nominating as candidate)
"nomina" in English means:
appointment, nomination (to a post)
Example
"La nomina del nuovo direttore è avvenuta ieri."
"The appointment of the new director took place yesterday."
