dar cuentas/ reportarse


Explanation:
If you go for "reportar" I´d choose the reflexive form. "y se reporta a" "reportarse a".

Good luck.

"Solo está bajo la supervisión del Gerente de IT"


Explanation:
Reportar(se) is Spanglish in this context. I prefer to use "estar bajo la supervisión" since that means that the IT Manager is the person above him in rank. Also please note "solo" does not take the accent mark as an adverb unless it may be mistaken for an adjective.

or

"solamente responde a las órdenes del Director..."

Ref: Superlex

reportar a algn; you will report to the finance director estará bajo las
órdenes del director financiero, reportará al director financiero
