PRINCE2F People: organizations, teams, and leadership Practice Question
Which role is responsible for managing the delivery of one or more Work Packages?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often mistakenly think the Project Manager handles Work Package delivery directly, but PRINCE2 assigns this to the Team Manager to maintain clear management layers and accountability.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Team Manager
In PRINCE2, the Team Manager is responsible for managing the delivery of one or more Work Packages. This role ensures that the work defined in the Work Package is completed according to the agreed quality criteria, time, and cost, and reports progress back to the Project Manager. The Team Manager acts as the direct supervisor of the team producing the products.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Project Assurance
Why it's wrong here
Project Assurance monitors and advises on the project's conduct; it does not manage Work Package delivery. It tempts because assurance reviews progress and products, but Work Package management is a delivery responsibility held by the Project Manager or Team Manager.
- ✓
Team Manager
Why this is correct
The Team Manager accepts Work Packages from the Project Manager and is accountable for delivering their contents to the agreed tolerances, allocating work and reporting progress. This delivery-focused accountability distinguishes the role from the Project Manager, who manages the stage rather than individual Work Packages.
- ✗
Project Manager
Why it's wrong here
The Project Manager manages Work Packages when there are no Team Managers, or delegates to Team Managers where the team structure exists. It tempts because the Project Manager controls the stage, yet Work Package delivery may sit with a Team Manager under delegated authority.
- ✗
Senior User
Why it's wrong here
The Senior User represents user interests on the Project Board, not delivery of Work Packages; that responsibility sits with the Team Manager, who agrees, executes and reports on Work Packages. The Senior User is tempting because they specify requirements and benefits, and would be involved in defining what a Work Package must deliver, but never in managing its day-to-day execution.
