A linejohtaja is a Finnish term that translates to "line manager" or "line supervisor" in English. This role typically refers to a person who is directly responsible for managing a team of employees who perform the core operational tasks of a company. Linejohtaja's are usually positioned between the upper management and the frontline workers.

The primary responsibilities of a linejohtaja often include overseeing daily operations, assigning tasks, monitoring performance, and ensuring that production or service delivery targets are met. They play a crucial role in communication, acting as a conduit between senior leadership and their team.
