Direttore Generale alla Gestione

Italian to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) contratto tra una società e i suoi fornitori
Carica all'interno di una società cooperativa italiana, ricoperta da una persona che rappresenta la società in un contratto.
Solitamente uso "General Manager" per Direttore Generale, ma come risolvo "alla Gestione"?

I think it's always better to leave "General" out of these kinds of equations.

General Manager

I remember seeing the general manager of the Ford Plant at Dagenham Essex on the news as a child. He was in charge of a really huge plant with enormous turnover and thousands of workers, but of course he was not the CEO of the Ford Motor Company.

I remember it because I asked my father what a general manager was. Of course he knew everything :)
