Spanish term

Técnico

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Human Resources Job categories
Context: professional job categories.
I do a lot of work for HH.RR consultants and I come across this all the time.....and I still haven't found a satisfactory answer.
It does not refer to a "Technician", but is a level of job category sandwiched between admin. workers and executives.
A técnico does not have any leadership nor does he/she report to anyone, but carries out a specific job.
For example, a financial analyst is a "técnico".
How the devil can we say this in English when there is no qualifying adjective?

Analyst

Hi Amanda,

I often come up against this as I translate CVs wholesale for the company (consultancy) I work with.

As far as I've been able to ascertain, there's no "catch all" term for this.

Depending on the department in question, "analyst" is often a good option, as they're ranked above the "clerical labour" level but below any "decision-making" level.

They basically compile and occasionally actually bother to analyse the information gathered, and act accordingly, drawing up reports and suchlike.

Welcome to Subirats,
Andy
