Now Open Meta Business Suite. Tap the Tools icon in the bottom right. Now tap Settings, then tap Page Access under Page Settings. Tap the “Add People” button at the top and Enter your password to confirm. Now enter the email or person’s name and that is it.

The assigned user should get a notification about this activity. However, the person can immediately start using managing the page. Don’t worry, later on, if you feel that you should change the existing role to the person, you still can. Note that the other Admin can remove you too.

Moreover, you need to keep this in mind, the person you are adding must be a friend on Facebook first. If not, then it is possible you might not see that person in the admin list there. After all, this is Facebook huh…

Remember, if the person you have added as admin is not logged in and didn’t verify the page role admin invitation, you may see the role area says pending.

Change or Remove Someone’s Role on Page

Any admin of the page can easily remove or change someone’s role. The admin can remove or change the existing role of a person. However, there is only one restriction you need to keep in mind, an admin should wait for the first 7 days to take any action in terms of removing or demoting another admin. See the reference screenshots below.
