A director is a member of the board of directors of the company, normally a shareholder, or co-opted by shareholders.

It is also normally held jointly and severally responsible for liabilities incurred by the company unless these have been limited.
An executive director is a hands-on director, someone involved in the day to day running of the company, often the actual boss, but if not then close to it.
