How to Change the ADMIN on Your Company Facebook Page

The best tips sometimes involve the simplest things- such as setting roles on your Facebook page. Adding a new admin might seem simple, but knowing exactly what to click and where to click saves you time and effort. So whether you’re onboarding someone in your team or delegating work, this step-by-step process will ensure you can complete it as quickly and efficiently as possible while freeing time to focus on more significant matters. Let’s change that ADMIN!

Step 1: Open Your Facebook Account.

Make sure you’re logged into the account that already has Admin access to the business’s Facebook page.

Step 2: Open Your Company Page.

You can click Pages on the left of your Facebook home page or search for your company page using the search bar.

To open your company page, click on it.

Step 3: Access Page Settings

Navigate to Settings (or Settings & Privacy, depending on how you set up your page) from the left-side menu. Then, navigate to Page Roles or New Pages Experience Settings (if applicable).

Step 4: Create a New Admin

In the Assign a New Page Role section, select the name or email of the user you would like to add.

Make sure the individual already liked the page or has a Facebook profile associated with the name or email address you’re submitting.
By clicking on the dropdown next to their name, choose Admin as the role.

Step 5: Check the Role Assignment.

Click Add.

Facebook will require you to re-enter your password to protect yourself. Please fill in your password and click submit.

Step 6: Update the New Admin.

The added person will get an email asking them to accept the position. Invite them to open their notifications and confirm their new Admin role on your page.

Step 7: Check the Admin Access.

Once they agree, go back to Page Roles and ensure that the user is set as an Admin.

Important Notes

Levels: Admins can completely manage the page, including taking other Admins out. Don’t leave this role open to everyone but those you trust.

Other Roles: If you don’t want full Admin permission, you could assign a smaller role such as Editor, Moderator, or Analyst.
