PRINCE2F People: organizations, teams, and leadership Practice Question
Which TWO of the following are roles in the PRINCE2 project management team?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse generic project governance terms like 'Steering Committee' or 'Project Sponsor' with PRINCE2's specific role names, or they incorrectly assume 'Risk Owner' is a core management team role rather than a risk practice assignment.

Project Manager
The PRINCE2 project management team includes the Project Manager (C) as the person responsible for day-to-day management and the Senior User (D) who represents the interests of those who will use the project's outputs. Both are defined roles in the PRINCE2 management structure, with the Project Manager reporting to the Project Board and the Senior User being a member of that board.
