I can't see admin console - just been made admin

I have a personal account (which I don't really use, but it is my login). I wave access to a team area and have just been made admin for this area. I can't see the admin console, how can I get to it?

Thank you

    Thanks for replying. Since writing I discovered that this is just a personal account which has been giving access to the team members so when they said 'you are now admin' it wasn't true, they had made  me owner. Anyway we should close this issue.

    Thank you

    Hi lizat, thanks for contacting us.

    Could you clarify what plan you're on according to this page?

    Are you definitely the team admin if you view this list?

    This will help me to assist further!
