Finnish term

esikuntajohtaja (non-military meaning)

Finnish to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
A document from the Finnish agency Valvira (National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health), describes the decision made in a case regarding the suspension of a doctor's license:

"Asia on ratkaistu Sosiaali- ja terveysalan lupa- ja valvontavirastosta annetun lain 3 §:ssä tarkoitetussa sosiaali-ja terveydenhuollon ammattihenkilöiden valvontalautakunnassa. Asian ratkaisemiseen ovat osallistuneet ylijohtaja [name], dosentti [name], esikuntajohtaja [name], ..."

I've mostly seen the term "esikunta" used in a military context, but this document has nothing to do with the military as far as I can see. What is an "esikuntajohtaja" in this case?

Thanks
