Director is a level below managing director. Managing director is for those not seeking entrance into the partnership. You still have to crest a business case and have significant partner support to make managing director similar to what you would need to make partner but you’ll have no equity in the firm.

Director still has a chance to be partner, MD is an end role and tends to be more of a subject matter specialist.

Do MDs have to bring in business?

Director is like a senior manager. Managing director is alternative route for someone who can't make partner.

Sorry for not being clearer, I meant I typically know about 5 total new partners each year of the new class. Of those about one every two years are MDs, the others are Directors.
