"Co-ordinator" describes the work that a lot of these managers do much better. A lot of my manager's work in spent in having meetings and such with other teams to find out things that would otherwise take the same amount of time out of 5 people's calendars.
The description of the job in OP's post sounds like it's largely a project management role.
I ended up in a similar role during my first job out of college, with a fancy title, managing people who all had more experience than me.
I was chosen for the role because I was very detail-oriented and was willing to do the organizational work to make sure everything was running smoothly and on schedule. Not everybody enjoys that work; sometimes it can feel like secretarial work. But if you can do it well, it's a good way to start out your career.
You got me thinking.. "manager" truly means someone who should be managing resources and process, smoothing out the kinks and letting his team work like a well oiled machine. Unfortunately most managers are rarely this, they thrive on micro-management and road-blocking initiatives.
What are you basing the idea that most managers aren’t like this from? All of my managers in my 15 year career have been about managing resources and process. I have yet to have a micro-managing manager.
My best managers were experts at that. Didn’t realize how good they were until they got poached. It helped that they were able to push back on things above them they knew to be harmful.
