Have you tried asking these questions to the esteemed director ☺
Is this limited just to “root” or all privileged accounts?
Maybe what he has shared is cryptic tongue in cheek and he has an elaborate
tool set in the background with a well documented set of steps to provide break
glass access
Else I think time for you to take a sabbatical ☺

Our IT Director has decided only he will have root access to out 4 linux
Database Servers . And the password will be held in a safe, Does these mean I
can no longer do the administration or Linux / Oracle or does his idea of
creating new account solve it?
