A managing director is an employee of the company, but not to the extent so as to be entitled to preferential payments. (News Papers Proprietary Syndicate Ltd, Re, [1990] 2 Ch 349. A managing director who is not a director is contradiction in terms because a normal director will not be taken as an employee. [Shirlaw v. Southern Foundaries Ltd. (1940) 10 Com Cases II (CA). A managing director occupies the duel capacity of being a director as well as employee of the company. The day to day management is entrusted to the managing director who can exercise power of management without referring to the Board.
