What is a corporate director?

A corporate director is a high-level executive who helps make important decisions about a company’s business affairs, policies, and goals. As a corporate director, you serve on a board of directors and work to protect the interests of the shareholders by ensuring financial targets are reached, company policy is upheld, and employers work efficiently. Depending on the company environment, you may also create operations and marketing plans, interview and hire talent, and work directly with customers or clients.
