Hiromi,
Yes, you can say reporting : in charge of.
In other words you can also translate the sentence as, he was almost in charge of 100 employees.
The word reporting comes from the fact that the employees must report what they do to their boss.
管理 can also be management... he managed almost 100 employees.
Hope this helps.

Yes, that's what it means. The 100 people are working for him. Merriam-Webster's dictionary has the following definition and example: "d : to work as a subordinate - [he/she] reports to the vice president" - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/report
