The lands of a manor were normally administered by a representative of the lord. There were various people involved in this. For example, the agricultural land was organized by the reeve, who might have been elected by the serfs or appointed by the lord, depending on local custom, but represented the lord and the serfs to each other. Stewards were involved wherever anything of value was concerned. The lord's demesne could be administered by the lord personally, but since many lords were absentee, it would have been often administered by someone appointed for the purpose.
