Do you need a Directors' Service Agreement ?

Directors’ services agreements are analogous to employment contracts: they set out directors’ roles, responsibilities and obligations, both statutory and company-specific.

Directors’ service agreements are essential because they regulate the Company’s relationship with the directors that have day-to-day responsibility and control.

Even if a firm has no employees, it should still have directors’ services agreements in place for the protection of all parties.

What might a Director's Service Agreement cover?

Directors’ service agreements typically cover three main areas:

Contractual arrangements for directors: job title, their terms of employment, description of their roles and powers, salary, hours of work, pension etc.
For instance, directors may have the ability to enter into contracts with other firms, employees, and contractors. Agreements can include limits on directors’ power, too.

Benefits of a well-crafted Directors’ Service Agreement :

1. Compliance. The Companies Act 2006 requires companies to place responsibilities on directors that relate to the work they do. Firms need to craft company and industry-specific documents that reflect this.
