Career Prospects

The typical day-to-day activities of someone in this role can include direct interactions with customers, providing essential business services, and depending on the industry, a frontline manager may also supervise production, manage floor associate or administrative staff.
From being responsible for overseeing the manufacturing of goods to ensuring deliveries arrive on time, this type of manager is essential in any organisation. In some cases, frontline managers are viewed as the ‘face’ of a business, making them extremely important to its success.
Frontline managers bring strategies to life, which in turn can have a significant impact on the daily performance of operations.
