Maybe they're trying to make themselves the presumptive candidate for a soon-to-be-open assistant manager's role? People apply for jobs they're not qualified for internally for reasons other than they expect to get it.
It could be the person is just using it to signal to upper management that they're interested in taking a managerial career path. They may not expect to get the role, but would get some upper-management mind share and some interview practice if they get interviewed for it.
