• 監督者かんとくしゃ
  nounSuits 'warden' when the emphasis is on supervising or overseeing people or work; otherwise it is really 'superintendent' or 'supervisor', and is a less common rendering of 'warden'.

• 看守長かんしゅちょう
  nounSpecifically the warden of a prison: the chief guard in charge of a correctional facility. Use this only for that penal-institution sense, not for dormitory or other wardens.

For prison wardens use 看守長; for a person in charge of a dormitory, hall, or institution 管理者 is the usual general choice; 「ウォーデン」 is a direct borrowing, and 監督者 covers supervisory roles.
