Roles

A number of default roles are defined in PRINCE2. Practitioners can tailor them based on their project environment, as long as they follow some rules; e.g. the executive and the project manager roles shouldn’t be merged into one, while some others may.

The following are the default PRINCE2 roles:

• Project board, a group of the following roles:
  • Executive, the business-oriented person who’s ultimately responsible for the project
  • Senior user, one or more people who represent the final users’ requirements in the board
  • Senior supplier, one or more people who represent the interests of the suppliers
• Project assurance, assures the interests of the primary stakeholders
• Change authority, decides on some of the requests for changes on behalf of the project board
• Project manager, responsible for the day to day management of the project on behalf of the project board
• Project support, helps the project manager in project management activities
• Team manager, is one or more people responsible for ensuring the quality and other variables of production in the teams
