The answer should be B.

He Julio acts as the subject and "She" as the object. Therefore "she" should be changed to "her".

D is incorrect because the predicate needs a verb. Right now the "as" is being used as "in the role of"

so if you rewrite it as

I want Julio and her in the role of project leaders

It is clear that the as is being used incorrectly.

how 'She' is an object... not the part of subject... ?
