  • Experience planning and scheduling work, equipment, and resources based on workload
  • Skill in assigning tasks, setting priorities, and monitoring progress to meet deadlines
  • Ability to inspect completed work and ensure it meets quality standards
  • Experience conducting performance appraisals, counseling employees, and handling grievances

  • Exercises technical and administrative supervision over subordinate workers.
