section leaders

Division point persons

Section leaders are people who oversee a portion of a larger group or organization.

In marching bands and orchestras, section leaders guide players of a particular instrument family—the brass section leader, the violin section leader.

In retail or warehouse settings, section leaders supervise specific areas or departments.

The term implies middle-level responsibility: authority over a segment, but answerable to someone directing the whole.
