General Manager
Även känt som: Company Manager · Head of Business
Runs the daily business of a small or mid sized company without a statutory role, steering all departments and reporting to the owner or board.
The general manager is the most senior operational leader below the owner or statutory board and covers every business function. The difference from a statutory director is that no legal authority or personal liability attaches to the role. Selection often fails because companies look for someone who solves everything personally, while the role calls for building structure and handing tasks to department leads.
