Management
English term or phrase: reports to
THis is probably more simple than I think...
How would you translate "reports to", for example when it appears in job descriptions, like: "The Assistant Director reports to the Director".
It's not about preparing reports, so it's not يقدم تقارير.
It's more about the organisational hierarchy.
THanks.
