Get company officers (directors and secretaries)
get_directorsRetrieve the full officer register for a UK company, including directors, secretaries, and LLP members, with appointment dates, roles, and each officer's corporate history.
Instructions
Get the current and past officers for a UK company. Despite the tool name, not every entry is a director: the list is the full officer register, so each entry carries an officer_role such as 'director', 'secretary', 'corporate-secretary' or 'llp-member', plus an is_board_director boolean that is false for secretaries. Report each person by their own officer_role - never describe the whole list as directors. Each officer includes name, officer_role, is_board_director, appointment date, resignation date (if applicable), nationality, occupation, month and year of birth, ECCTA verification status, and a list of other companies they are or were appointed to, each with its own officer_role. This gives you a full picture of an officer's corporate history in one call.
