neutral  AllegroTrans: and "consejero"?; and "director creativo" following the term?

  -> Yawn, if you know anything you should know that director is NOT director.

neutral  philgoddard: Allegro has a point. This would be correct in other contexts, but I don't think it works here.

co-owner


Explanation:
As FVS points out, he is a director and shareholder. However, calling him "shareholder director and creative director" would be wrong, and "co-owner and creative director" would be better.

This person's identity is easy to Google, and he is widely referred to in the English-language press simply as "creative director".
