Are you experiencing growth in business and you want to add a coworker to your Facebook page as an admin? This is where you will learn how to achieve this.

That you are experiencing growth in your business means that you need to expand your team and delegate the running of your social media platform to people you trust, hence the need to include another Facebook page admin.

Function of Facebook admin?

Your Facebook page’s administrator is like the CEO of the page. That is the person with the entire access to your Facebook page. The Admin can create and delete posts, respond to and delete comments, manage page settings and roles, manage ads, ban people from the page, and much more.

These roles help your business to restrict some access and permission with regards to your marketing agency and internal team. As a result, you can assign experts to certain tasks without the risk of breaches or mistakes that may harm your Facebook page.

How then can you add a Facebook administrator to enable you to control your social media marketing platform?

6 easy steps to add a Facebook Admin

Step 1: To add or create an admin you first need to be an admin

Before starting, you need to be sure that you are already an Admin on that Facebook page. Request from an admin that your page roles be changed to that of an admin if you are not already one.

Step 2: Log Into Facebook

When you are logged into your Facebook account, click the blue arrow located at the upper right screen corner. A dropdown with a “manage pages” option will be displayed, then click on it. Alternatively, you can click on your Business page of the drop-down menu if it is displayed in the “Pages” section.

Step 3: Click the Settings button located at Page’s Top

At the right-hand corner of the screen’s upper part is where the Settings button is located. Click it to effect changes on your Page Roles.

Step 4: Click Page Roles located in the Left Column

Leave your Business page and go to your dashboard. Click on Page Roles located on the left side of the dashboard.

Step 5: Update the existing page roles or Assign a New Role

At the right-hand corner of the screen, you can view “Existing Page Roles”, “Page Owner” and “Assign a New Page Role”. Go to “Assign a New Page Role” to add a member of your team who is unassigned. There is a toggle bar located at the right which is always set to “Editor” by default. Toggle it to set it to “Admin.” A notification will be sent to your new admin via Facebook feed and email. The new admin has to accept the invitation to proceed as an admin.

*in some situations, before the new admin can be added, he or she needs to like your Facebook page.

Choose “Existing Page Roles” and toggle to Admin to update the role of an existing member. Once confirmed by the recipient, the permissions will be updated and he or she can start functioning as an admin.

Step 6: Password Confirmation

As an extra security measure, you are required to input your Facebook password to confirm the inclusion of an admin. This is important as it prevents other users from unauthorized admin inclusion. Once you are don’t with this process, you will have added more Admins for your Facebook marketing.

Facebook Administration Benefits

Task Delegation

The addition of another admin helps in task delegation such as advertising, moderation, and other Page roles. This is a key step for easy Facebook marketing.

Emergency Backup

Things may go bad and you will be locked out of your Facebook account. However, your additional administrator will still have access to your Business page. This may be helpful where you have comments needing moderation, more update hours, and messages needing quick replies.

Vacation or Sick Leave

If for any reason you are out of the office, you will still have some else with the same permissions as you to keep the business page active.

Necessary Observations when Adding a Facebook Administrator

There is a risk of a cybersecurity breach when you include another admin aside from yourself. This breach could damage your reputation and business.

A word to the wise: Do not add someone that you do not trust as an Admin. This is because they can hijack the page and even remove you as an admin. Make use of “Editor” instead, if you are having doubts about adding an admin. Doing this will still give the person access to the Page’s management but he or she will not be able to make major changes like adding admins or changing the name of the page.

In the long run, adding new Facebook admins is a step most businesses must perform as there is always the need to hand over the reins and delegate responsibilities.

Nevertheless, as far as you are cautious enough and heed necessary precautions, there should not be an issue with your Page roles.

Changing Admin on a Facebook page

A new admin needs to be added to transfer the admin duties from an old person to the new one.

The new admin has to accept the invitation for the role through the Facebook notification.

As displayed above, the new admin should go to the page settings and remove the old admin.

The assigned roles are listed in ‘Existing page roles‘.

Click the Edit button that tallies with a person’s name to delete a person from a role. After that, click Remove and then Confirm.

You will not be able to delete them if there is only one admin as the current admin must at least add another admin

Each Facebook page must have at least one admin who can delete any role freely.
