Responsable des placements en actions
'Head' is usually translated in French as 'Responsable', as opposed to 'Directeur', which usually equates to 'Director' or 'Manager', or 'Chef' which is rather more informal and is rarely used in a job title or description...
The following example is from the Standard Life website:
"Norman Raschkowan
Premier vice-président et administrateur
Responsable de l'ensemble des placements en actions
D. William MacDonald
Premier vice-président et administrateur
Responsable des placements en obligations et du marché monétaire"

I am pretty sure of this as I worked for a French stockbroker
Capital letters and plural for "Actions" are important in French in this case

Responsable Actions
finally, and with the help of everybody, this may be the final answer. As I said above, this short translation without the English "of" is the more commonly used. Actions must be plural and capital letters in this precise context.
I agree with Julia about "responsable" being a bit better than directeur
