Head Writer from WikiPedia:

A head writer is a person who oversees the team of writers on a television or radio series. The title is common in the soap opera genre, but in prime time series this function is generally performed by an executive producer.

The head writer conceives and outlines the long-term story of a scripted television or radio series.

In daytime television, the over-arcing storylines are broken out into daily episodes, which are then individually outlined by particular writers, and fleshed out with dialogue by others.

In prime time series, individual staff or freelance writers briefed with any long-term storylines generally pitch their episode ideas to the head writer/executive producer. The writer then developed their approved idea into a script, which is subsequently edited and revised by the series' entire writing team during the production process.
