That depends on their position. They could be on battalion staff, they might be platoon leader, they might be a company executive officer (in the case of a First Lieutenant), and it'll also be dependent on their occupation - a logistics officer and an infantry officer are going to have very different functions, although they'll share some similar duties within their unit.
