When leading for projects: managing, planning and monitoring workloads and resources, delivering operational plans and resolving problems.

When leading teams: the Leader will support, manage and develop team members, building relationships internally and externally. The Team Leader may also be responsible for hiring and training staff and covering management duties where needed.
