Role of limited company director - advice?

I'm a named director (no shares) myself, so coming from that side...

Officially, it's actually somewhat better for you to make him a director as he's then legally accountable for their actions and general upkeep of the company, taxes etc.

I'm not sure if you've added/changed signatories to your bank account, but that's near impossible to take over with the checks in place, it's also a ridiculously painful mind numbing process. So money wise your safe.

That being said when a BDD is touting for business, odds are your company will be searched for financials/people etc. before any contracts being exchanged, it would flag with me in carrying out checks, if he's not officially on companies house.

Questions would be asked, why not? Are they not a decision maker, is it just another job with a title to please ego, like you say. If I had the title of director and not on companies house, I'd probably be looking for it for this reason, that and potentially applying for jobs in future for CV.
