How companies are run
Director
Two different things in the UK. As a job title, a senior manager (director of engineering, say). As a legal role, a company director registered at Companies House, with legal duties to the company and a seat on the board.
A plain-English explanation of how this usually works, not legal advice. Rules differ between countries and change over time, so check your own situation. Disclaimer.
You'll hear it as
She's a director in title, but she isn't on the board.
Why it matters to you.
A director title is a job. Being a statutory director comes with legal responsibility. Know which one you're being offered.
