A Project Manager is the manager assigned to manage a single project whereas the Line Manager manages the work taken up by a line of projects. A Project manager may or may not be the line manager. This entirely depends on the organization’s structure and its type.

 

Generally projects in organizations are aligned based on the line of business, so, they have a Line Manager who manages all those projects. The Line manager interacts with the Project Managers who manage the projects that fall in their Line of Business (LOB). A line manager, also called the reporting manager, is a person responsible for administrative part of the resources.

 

Who has the more authority ?

Again, This entirely depends on the organization’s structure and its type.

A line manager would be aligned towards senior management vision and strategy. A line manager may have more focus on the culture and policies of the company and may be coordinating every business operations for the company.

 

A project manager on the other hand would have objectives focused on achieving the goals of the project and would be spending more time on the execution and managing the project team.

 

With this perspective, a line manager would be having better authority within the scope of the organization or company. The demarcation would have clarity in the job description and goals set for these positions.
