The administrator of a Facebook page is a person who has been designated as having control over the page and its content. The administrator can add or remove other administrators, publish posts, manage comments and messages, and perform various tasks related to managing the page.

In larger organizations, there may be multiple administrators for a single page, each with its responsibilities. The administrator role is essential, as it allows the person to shape the public image of the page and communicate with its followers.
