senior executive
Corporate decision maker
A senior executive is a high-ranking corporate officer responsible for major organizational decisions—typically titles like CEO, CFO, or vice president.
The term distinguishes top-tier leadership from middle management: Senior executives met to discuss the merger.
In compensation discussions, senior executive often signals substantial salary, bonuses, and stock options.
