# Member management

In JOIN, managing your team is simple and flexible—allowing you to invite unlimited team members, assign the right permissions, and organise job-specific responsibilities. This guide walks you through how to manage your hiring team from the `Team` section in your `Settings` tab.

### Company roles

When inviting or editing a user, you must assign a `Company role` that defines their overall access level:

* **System Admin:** Full access to all features, settings, and job visibility
* **Standard**: Can create jobs, access the store, and manage limited settings
* **Limited**: View-only access to specific data

To learn more about permissions, click `? Roles & Permissions` in the top-right corner of the `Team` section.

{% hint style="info" %}
Only users with the `System Admin` company role can access and manage this section.
{% endhint %}

***

### Inviting new team members

`System Admins` can invite new colleagues to JOIN at any time, with no limit on the number of users.

To invite a team member:

1. Go to the `Settings` tab
2. Select `Team` from the sidebar menu Here, you’ll find two tabs:
   * `Members`: Lists all active team members
   * `Invites`: Shows pending invitations that haven’t been accepted yet
3. In the `Team` section, click the `Invite team member` button
4. Enter one or more work-related email addresses (comma-separated)
   * Private email domains (e.g. Gmail, Hotmail) are not accepted
   * If an email turns red, hover over it to see why—it may already be in use or linked to a candidate account
5. Select a `Company role` from the dropdown (`Standard`, `Limited`, or `System Admin`)
6. Click `Continue`
7. If you selected `Standard` or `Limited`, assign jobs and job-specific roles—or click `Select all jobs`
8. Click `Send invite`

{% hint style="warning" %}
A user email address can only be used in one JOIN company account at a time. If already registered elsewhere, it must be removed from the other account before being invited again.
{% endhint %}

Once invited, the user will receive an invitation email prompting them to create a recruiter account. After verification, their name will move from the `Invites` tab to the `Members` tab.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can invite users from domains not currently associated with your company. A domain warning under the email won’t block the invite unless the email turns red.
{% endhint %}

***

### Managing invites

Under the `Invites` tab, you can manage all pending invitations.

To manage an invite:

* Click the overflow menu (three dots) next to the invitee’s name
  * Select `Cancel invitation` to revoke it
  * Select `Resend invite` if the email wasn’t received

If the resend option is greyed out or unresponsive, try refreshing the page. If the issue persists, contact support.

You can also:

* Change the invitee’s `Company role`
* Assign or update job access and job-specific roles before the user accepts the invite

{% hint style="warning" %}
If the invitation email isn’t received, check spam/junk folders. If it’s still missing, your email firewall or DNS settings may be blocking it. Contact your IT team or JOIN's support team for assistance.
{% endhint %}

***

### Assigning jobs and job roles

Assigning a team member to a job lets them participate in the hiring process. This works differently based on their company role:

* `Standard` and `Limited` users must be explicitly assigned to specific jobs
* `System Admins` can access all jobs by default, regardless of assignment

However, only users assigned to a job will receive email notifications about applications.

To assign or manage jobs:

1. Click the job count under the `Jobs` column (e.g. `2 jobs`, `Assign jobs`)
2. To assign more jobs, click `+ Assign` and select jobs from the dropdown
3. Assign a job-specific role for each job:
   * `Reviewer`: Can review and evaluate candidates
   * `Hiring Manager`: Can edit job details and make hiring decisions
   * `Job Admin`: Full control over the job ad, candidates, and hiring team
4. Click `Assign` to save changes

{% hint style="info" %}
System Admins must be explicitly assigned to a job to receive related email notifications.
{% endhint %}

***

### Removing users from jobs

There are two ways to remove a team member from a job:

* From the `Team` section:
  * Click the job count next to their name
  * Click the assigned job role, then select `Remove`
* From the `Jobs` tab:
  * Open the job card's overflow menu, click `Edit`
  * Scroll to the hiring team and remove the user

If the user is currently the contact person for a job, a warning will appear before removal. You can either assign a replacement immediately or update this later by editing the job ad.

***

### Editing or removing team members

To remove a team member:

1. Go to `Settings` > `Team`.
2. Click the delete icon <i class="fa-trash-can">:trash-can:</i> next to the user's name.
3. Confirm the removal. You’ll be prompted to assign a replacement if the user is listed as a contact person for any job.

You cannot:

* Remove yourself from the team
* Remove the account owner (both actions will have a greyed-out bin icon)

Removed users can be re-invited at any time.

***

### Understanding user details

In the `Members` tab, you can see key information for each user:

* Name and email address
* Last active time (e.g. “2 days ago”)
* Company role (editable via dropdown)
* Assigned jobs and their job-specific roles

Names displayed here are based on each [user's profile settings](https://join.com/settings/user/profile).

***

### Contact person and job notifications

To assign a contact person for a job:

1. Go to the `Jobs` tab
2. Click the overflow menu on a job card and select `Edit`
3. Scroll to the `Contact person` section and select a team member

The selected contact person will:

* Appear on the job ad as the point of contact
* Receive email notifications when new applications are submitted

***

### Managing account ownership

You can recognise the account owner by a greyed-out delete icon <i class="fa-trash-can">:trash-can:</i> in the `Team` section. This implies that you cannot remove account owners from the account.

Only JOIN support can transfer ownership to another user. To request this:

1. Ensure another user is already added to your account
2. Contact JOIN support via your account or by email: <contact@join.com>

### FAQs

<details>

<summary>Why can’t I delete a member from the team?</summary>

If nothing happens when you try to delete a member, it’s likely because the user you’re trying to delete is the only system admin in your account. For example:

* `user@example.com` is the owner, but a standard user.
* `systemadmin@example.com` is the only system admin.

You cannot delete the only system admin. To remove the member, first give the owner or another user system admin rights, then you’ll be able to delete the other account.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I add and manage multiple users in my account?</summary>

Yes, there is no limit to the number of users you can invite to your account. We believe that hiring is a team sport, so when more users have access, decisions can be made faster.

Use [Teams](https://join.com/settings/company/users) to control access to jobs and features so each user sees only what is relevant.

</details>

<details>

<summary>How does team collaboration work in JOIN?</summary>

By utilising tags, comments, and scorecards, you can easily share candidate profiles and evaluations with your team. Additionally, the assessment rating feature promotes collaborative decision-making. Our goal is to simplify recruiting and maximise your team's efficiency.
