Site Director Job Description

The Companies House Website

You may be the new company director if you visit the Companies House website. Thank you! Whether your business is large or small, you have now taken on a number of significant legal duties.

It is important to know the articles of association as they may affect your decision-making powers. If you exceed your powers, you could have to compensate the company for any financial losses that occur. The board can only make decisions that are in the best interests of the company, not the best interests of everyone else.

Directors should be more broad minded in their evaluation of interests than they are in their financial perspective. Directors were appointed for their reputation, not their work, in the past, but they still had to do work for the board. The duty for directors to care and diligence in their role has ended.

Conflicts of interest are situations where the director has a personal or business relationship with people or entities that are affected by the company's activities. It could relate to situations where the director may be considering taking advantage of the company's property, information or opportunity on a personal basis. Gifts from third parties can be a threat to a director's objectivity.
