Appointive refers to a position, role or office that is filled by appointment. This means it is not elected or chosen by popular vote but assigned or established by an authoritative body or an individual with the power to do so. This could include various roles in a government, a company, an organization, or even a committee, where the person is selected and appointed rather than elected.
