How to Make Someone an Admin on a Facebook Page
An admin has the most power in a group. Among other responsibilities, they can add and remove admins and moderators and approve or deny membership requests.
Click Groups in the left menu. If you don’t see Groups, click See More. Select your group. Click Members from the menu on the left. Click the three-dot menu icon next to the person you want to make an admin. Select Make admin. Click Send Invite. That person will receive a notification; you’ll either get an alert when they respond or your admin list will update. To cancel an invitation, go to Members > Invited Admins & Moderators, click the three-dot menu icon next to the name, and select Cancel Admin Invite. To remove someone as an admin, select Remove as Admin from the three-dot menu next to their name.
How to Make Someone a Moderator on a Facebook Page
Moderators can do nearly everything an admin does; the main exception is that they can’t make members admins or moderators.
Click Groups in the left menu. If you don’t see Groups, click See More. Select your group. Click Members from the menu. Click the three-dot menu icon next to the person you want to make a moderator. Select Make Moderator. Click Send Invite. That person will receive a notification; if they accept, the list of moderators will update on the group page. To cancel an invitation, go to Members > Invited Admins & Moderators, click the three-dot menu icon next to the name, and select Cancel Moderator Invite.

Facebook Admin vs. Moderator
Groups can have multiple admins as well as moderators, who can do almost everything that admins can. By default, the creator of the group is an admin; they can step down only if they name someone in their place.
Only admins can:
Invite other members to be admins or moderatorsRemove admins and moderatorsManage group settings, including changing the cover photo, renaming the group, and changing privacy settings. Invite someone to become a Group Expert.
Admins and moderators can:
Approve or reject new member requestsApprove or rejected new posts in the groupRemove posts and commentsRemove and block people from the group. Pin or unpin a post or announcement
Group Experts
Facebook Group admins also have the ability to invite group members to become Group Experts. Once an admin has identified someone as particularly knowledgeable, the admin can issue an invitation to the person requesting that they become a Group Expert.
When the Group Expert accepts the invitation, they’ll have a Group Expert badge next to their name to identify their post as particularly informative. Admins and Group Experts can collaborate on Q&A sessions, respond to questions, offer vital information, and more.
