I think your translation is fine, I would not leave "self-employed" out.
In a resume format, you might omit the "and", depends on what follows.

Discussion
At investment banks and other financial institutions, "managing director" does not necessarily refer to the chief executive but can rather refer to the head of a major business unit.
The term Chief Executive (or its American equivalent "Chief Executive Officer" or just "CEO") is in general usage in the United Kingdom for the senior executive of public limited companies, charities and Executive Agencies. At subsidiary companies usage is more variable, with managing director often preferred.
