Can a project lead add or remove users in his/her project?

Erik Gocher

I want to allow project leads to manage their users: add / remove developers.

I have an "Administrator" project role. I can add this role to the Project Lead. 

Where do I set up the permissions for the Project Lead user?

You need to have "Jira Admin" rights, so that you can edit the permission scheme.

I'm 100% in favour of permission schemes that include "project lead has project administrator rights", but a lot of places don't do that (mostly because Jira can be complex and they don't know that the option is there!)
