Like all managers, the senior manager is responsible for planning and directing the work of a group of individuals. They monitor their work and takes corrective actions when necessary.

Senior managers might guide workers directly or they might direct several supervisors, who in turn directly manage the workers. The senior manager often supervises the largest or most important group or groups in a company.
