Spanish term or phrase: proposición a
Hola:

El texto a continuación es parte de las funciones desempeñadas por el gerente administrativo de una empresa:

Me pareció que había que mejorar un poco más la redacción en español, por lo que opté por cambiar el orden de las palabras en inglés:

L1:
Formulación y proposición a Gerencia General de Normas, Políticas y Procesos en las áreas de su competencia.

L2:
Formulation of rules, policies and processes for relevant departments which are presented to the General Manager.

propose
Explanation:
Develop rules, policies and processes for areas under Administrative Manager responsibility and submit/present them to the General Manager.

*To avoid using "his/her", you can put the title of the job position as an adjective phrase in the sentence.
Examples: areas under Administrative Manager/R&D Director/Operations Manager/Line Supervisor responsibility

I agree with Juan Arturo that using the infinitive for the duties is more expressive and dynamic (and more common in English), but if you've been using the noun forms for the other entries, to keep the sentence structure parallel it would be:

Development of rules, policies and processes for areas under Administrative Manager responsibility for approval by the General Manager.
