Regional Managers work for large corporations, firms, and multinational companies. They supervise several locations or offices, and are responsible for the operations at those locations. Managers in these positions typically have other managerial and supervisory staff reporting to them.

Regional managers may be department specific and oversee a particular job, such as sales, marketing, and advertising, in offices across the region. This is especially the case for companies in sales that hire a large number of employees without centralizing all of their operations. Managers receive lucrative salaries, stocks, bonds, pensions, vacation, insurance, and allowances.

•  Supervising staff
