Employers have to deal with a mass of paperwork and official documents, and
are often overwhelmed by the time-consuming occupation of ensuring each one
is adequately written and includes all the necessary content.
A Director's Service Agreement is a contract of employment between a Company Director and a private limited or public company, which deals with their rights and responsibilities as the officeholder and sets out the matters that are required to be dealt with by employment law.
The Company Director is an employee as well as an officeholder, and it is important that their terms of employment are clearly expressed in a contract, for the benefit of both parties. If the Director is contracted from as independent source the contract is known as a consultancy agreement.
