‘Willing to do managements job for them’.

I use ‘self starter’ at work to describe someone that I don’t have to manage and will figure out what they need to do to manage their own project without me holding their hands.
I provide my own continuity binder and am there to answer any questions once we’re done with a brief left seat/right seat… but, I need someone who is capable of handling themselves instead of me being their parent.
What’s a better word than ‘self starter’ if people see that negatively?

They have initiative if they are able to act on their own based on their training.
If you don’t bother with training then you want self starters and hopefully you are fine with whatever shenanigans they come up with.

I would also add that 'why use many words when few word do' is usually used to obfuscate bad stuff, so you could potentially pass the vibe check by just saying the above similarity to how you described it here.
