executive producer/head of development

The person(s) that is responsible for the development of a screenplay(among other things) is called an executive producer.
Executive producers are the ones to give development notes.
There's also the Head of Development but that's a more generic title within a production company.

Experience with the field :-)

Further to development: people who work in development are working on the initial stages of a TV show or movie, usually before there is even a script. One of their jobs is to write what is called a \"treatment\" which is the plot written in a narrative style, like a story.

Production management

If that's all the text you have, and it just says:
Producción - Responsable de desarrollo

Then it's obviously describing the duties of the production manager. So the translation would then be:

Production - Responsible for production management
