comanager
Joint business overseer
A comanager shares management responsibilities with one or more others, typically splitting duties or authority over the same entity.
Two people might comanage a retail store, a mutual fund, or a baseball team.
The arrangement implies equal or near-equal standing rather than a hierarchy: She and her brother are comanagers of the family business.
