ügyvezetje

Ügyvezető is a Hungarian term that translates to managing director, executive director, or chief executive officer in English, depending on the specific context of the company structure and its bylaws. This role is central to the operational management of a business entity in Hungary. The ügyvezető is responsible for the day-to-day running of the company, making decisions that affect its business activities, and representing the company externally.

The appointment and powers of an ügyvezető are typically outlined in the company's articles of association or founding documents. They are often appointed by the shareholders or a supervisory board. The scope of their authority can vary widely, but generally includes overseeing staff, managing finances, ensuring compliance with legal requirements, and implementing strategic decisions made by the ownership. In many cases, the ügyvezető is the primary legal representative of the company, capable of signing contracts and acting on behalf of the business in legal proceedings. The term is most commonly associated with limited liability companies (Kft. - Korlátolt Felelősségű Társaság) and public limited companies (Zrt. - Zártkörűen működő Részvénytársaság).
