director financiero con funciones de DG
Spanish to English
Bus/Financial
Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs
Hello,
In a CV one of the jobs is "director financiero con funciones de DG", also seen later as "director financiero (gerente)".
I am not sure if there is a word for this role, which is seen in small companies where the Finance Director takes on other duties as there is no General Manager.
I was thinking it might just be Financial Director / Managing Director
Does anybody have a better idea?

Comment: "Thank Liz. I still didn't like the way it sounded. Managing Director-level blah blah blah just doesn't seem to roll off the tongue or seem that professional!Your answer was the inspiration for the phrase I eventually used, though, which was "Finance Director at the Managing Director level", so thanks again!

Finance Director and Acting Managing Director OR: (also) Acting as Managing Director
A suggestion.

And here's an example of the other option (Acting as Managing Director):

Finance Director acting as Managing Director.
If "and Acting Managing Director" seems to suggest that there's a managing director job that is only temporarily vacant, perhaps the second option - (also)Acting as Managing Director - would help avoid confusion.
