He is the noncommissioned officer in charge (NCOIC) of the operations in the absence of the Executive/Operations Officer. The Operations Sergeant advises the Company/Battalion/Brigade Commander on the current and future employment of the unit. He maintains the current operational status of the unit.

Highway Operations Sergeant: The Highway Ops SGT provides staff estimates and expert input into the planning and operations of tactical wheeled vehicles. Provides input for road movement tables; assists in the development of main supply routes. Normally assigned to a brigade level or higher staff.
Detachment Sergeant: This position is similar to the first sergeant except it is usually in units with less than 75 personnel and is usually held by a Sergeant First Class. The detachment sergeant is responsible for providing sound advice to the commander on a wide range of topics including the health, esprit de corps, discipline, mentoring, well being, career progression, recognition, and professional development of all assigned enlisted members. Furthermore, working with his or her fellow Senior NCOs and supervisors, the detachment sergeant ensures discipline is equitably maintained, and the goals of health, esprit de corps, discipline, mentoring, and welfare of the enlisted force are met. Detachment sergeants hold formations, instruct platoon sergeants and assist the commander in daily unit operations.

Platoon Sergeant: The platoon sergeant is the primary assistant and advisor to the platoon leader, with the responsibility of training and caring for soldiers. The platoon sergeant helps the commander to train the platoon leader and in that regard has an enormous effect on how that young officer perceives NCOs for the rest of his career. The platoon sergeant takes charge of the platoon in the absence of the platoon leader. As the lowest level senior NCO involved in the company METL, platoon sergeants teach collective and individual tasks to soldiers in their squads, crews or equivalent small units. A platoon sergeant or sergeant first class generally has extensive military experience and can make accurate decisions in the best interest of the mission and the soldier. Utilizing tough, realistic and intellectually and physically challenging performance-oriented training to excite and motivate soldiers, the platoon sergeant ensures Army standards are met and maintained. Additionally, the platoon sergeant must conduct cross training to promote critical wartime skills within the unit, evaluate the effectiveness of the platoon and provide training feedback to the commander and first sergeant during After-Action Reviews (AAR) on all unit collective training.
