Who's being disparaging of others? I was simply pointing out that people tend to hear the word director in a job title, and think it automatically means some business grandee. It doesn't usually.

My job is well known on this forum. I've never hidden it.

My official title is Head of Marketing and Business Development, Asia. I work for a large international law firm.

spot on. i never suggested that i was a grandiose £3M a year person
i'm a director of a business unit in an FTSE company
i explained exactly what that was and where it sat within the organisation
i never suggested anything otherwise, it's the morons on here
who chose to try and make it into something it's not

that is one of my main reasons, yes

it's high time that habitual liars like sibley were called out

by already proving him as a multiple ID liar on here already, i'm almost done

i'll also prove mr ree to be the same thing, if he has the guts to meet

Sibley is the king of the wind up merchants. If he reads this he'll be laughing his t**ts off - you might be the first person he's wound up so much that they've been driven to the edge of mental illness.

PS: MrRee is a sockie and so are you.

Aaaah!!

It’s becoming a bit clearer – you’re not actually a director of this unnamed FTSE at all, but actually a regular employee who is a middle-manager at some lowly business unit.

Hardly the high flyer you originally held yourself out to be, eh?

Oh dear. :cool:

I did think it was a little odd for some one who was a director of a leading UK / global firm to be renting a bedsit, out of choice. Most senior managers would own their own home, rather than clinging on for the next “house price crash”

i'm not wound up at all. it amuses no end me to prove what a complete bell end he is and to demonstrate what a liar he is
he's the one getting wound up...i'm just laughing every time i prove him wrong
i've shown a few work colleagues this stuff and we look over it at lunchtime laughing at him and his fantasy life

and i have no idea what a sockie is? what is it?

If you see something like this in the mirror in the morning then I'm afraid you've become a sockie. Don't worry too much - lots of people round here get it and their motor skills are still sufficient to allow them to set up new usernames.

They are all in their mid to late 30s, and not particularly senior.

I myself have a director equivalent title (actually, i'm called a 'Heads of'). It doesnt mean that much.

Anyone on the board is included in the decision making of the direction of a business, that is a senior role IMHO. You may not have as much sway as the CEO but you do at least have some say, unlike anyone who is not a director.
Director of...... lets you have a seat on the board and likely the most senior person in your department.
Also their are a hell of a lot of responsibilities that come with being a director. I presume being "Head of" does not mean you have some of the liabilities a director has, EG judging when trading insolvent etc. Directors can be held personally responsible for a lot of things, business failure, Legal, Safety etc.

You said you are a Director of a FTSE 100 company, you hold a substantial amount of gold and you can't afford to buy a home and need to rent.
Show me the post where you explained your role in the FTSE 100 organisation.
TIA!

Im sorry Really, but you have got it wrong.

Having the title director does NOT get you a seat on the board. I'm afraid you don't understand corporate governance. A director of marketing or a director of HR or a director of a business unit, is not the same thing as a company director - one is an executive position with management responsibilities, the other is a shareholder representative position.

I am a Head of . . . it's just a title. For the record I have two director positions reporting to me.

I don't have a seat on the board, although in my case I work in a partnership structure and do sit as a non-voting member of the firm's Asia Executive Committee.

May I suggest they use an independent third-party (generali?), where mrree and marlonthemagnificent pm over their personal details. Who can verify the claims of these two business magnates/oligarchs.
