I got the job over internal person who applied for job, now I'm her boss!

I have just been offered a position as office manager. In my final interview the director mentioned the person that would be training me also applied for the job but they felt she just wasn't management material.


The director said she hopes that it won't be a problem.

Any suggestions on how to go into this setting?

Good luck to you! I'm the person in the same situation only I'm the one that didn't get the job.. the person that did get hired over me is going to have a very hard time fitting in....
