If the loan is to the company, as stated in your original email, it is a

TO the director, then it would be an asset of the company and he would be
correct.
But the OP said:

moved out of the company, into my personal bank account.
When I tried to pay myself using GnuCash, I was expecting money to go
out of the company bank account,into my personal account, and reduce
the company's liability. However when I set up a bill, I could see it
was only possible to bill this as assets or expenses - *not as a
liabilitiy*. Does this mean I need to set up another account for
expenses?
"money out of the company into my personal bank account" -- that seems
pretty clear to me that the company is lending the director money, not
the other way round.
1. Lending money.
2. Paying a Dividend.
3. Reimbursement for expense paid by individual.
4. Reduction of equity share (stock buy-back).
All of those could be "money out of the company into my personal bank
account".
