Add a New Administrator

Create a new admin account in your agency and control exactly what they can access. After adding an administrator, you can assign permissions, define their responsibilities, and use advanced settings to limit their access to specific types, tags, locations, or other criteria. This helps you create focused admin roles and ensures each team member only works with the parts of the platform that are relevant to them. This documentation will walk you through adding a new administrator and configuring their access settings.

Adding a new administrator may result in an additional fee. For details about admin-related charges, please refer to your agreement or contact us at hello@enginehire if you have any questions.

The New Administrator will be added successfully.

Once the admin’s information is added to the system, they can log in using the same URL that admins, candidates, and clients use. For their first login, both the username and password will be their email address.
