A plantation overseer is like a foreman - a person in charge to make sure work is done and employees are managed.

Addendum. A plantation officer is not like a foreman who works with legally employed people who willingly sign a contract to do a work. They are enforcers who make sure people do the work a master wants done whether the enslaved want to or not.
