# Group membership

Group members have either a *member*, *supervisor*, *administrator*, or *owner* role. You can manage the membership of any group in which you have an owner or administrator role. However, you can only modify the membership of members that have a lower permission level than yourself. A user with a supervisor role has read-only access to the group.

{% hint style="warning" %}
In each group or subgroup, only one user can have the owner role.
{% endhint %}

The following table lists the changes that a user with an owner or administrator role can make to members in the **same** group:

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you have an owner or administrator role in a group, you are automatically granted permissions in subgroups of that group. Your permissions are equivalent to an owner role in the subgroup.

If you have a supervisor role in a group, you are automatically granted supervisor permissions in subgroups of that group.

An owner or administrator in a parent group can remove an owner from a subgroup. The only other way to remove an owner from a group is to contact ENGAGE support.
