What does a CEO do?

Chief Executive Officers (also known as CEOs) head large businesses and corporate enterprises. They steer the direction of the organisation and report to the Board of Directors.

As a CEO you are responsible for the overall profitability, success and compliance of the organisation, and your daily job role will be spent delegating and planning. You could be developing a strategic plan, overseeing an acquisition or merger, representing your company at a trade conference, or addressing a general staff meeting.
