The terms "director of operations" and "operations director" are often used interchangeably, but they can imply different roles depending on the organization. A director of operations typically focuses on overseeing the day-to-day operations and ensuring efficiency within the organization, often reporting to a higher executive. In contrast, an operations director may have a broader strategic role, focusing on long-term operational planning and development. However, the specific duties and hierarchy can vary by company, so context matters.
A project manager handles more of the day to day operations of a job than a project director. The director is in charge of the big picture in getting a project finished.
A non-executive director sits on the board of directors however is not considered to be an executive. They are not involved with day to day operations and decisions. In contrast, an independent director is a director who holds responsibilities and was brought in as a consultant from the outside.
In a corporation, an officer carries out day to day operations, while a director has overall responsibility for the business and answers to shareholders. Often, these functions are carried out by the same people.
