Helpful Hint
By default, account owners have admin access and if you need to change the owner (who is currently an admin), you can refer to this article: Change a business owner FAQ.
Account owners have the Admin section of their employment details set to no - but if you are an account owner, you will have admin status by default.
A company admin has the highest level of access to your organisation's HR platform. Examples of people who you might want to make an admin include a head of HR or company director. Learn what actions admins can perform on the website and in-app in this article.
To assign admin access, use the Make admin feature in the Overview section of a user's employee file. This gives the user full, unrestricted access to the Employment Hero platform.
Important
On the Free plan, you're limited to two admins. To change ownership, Employment Hero requires written permission from the current owner, including the new owner's email address. The new owner must already be listed as an employee on the platform. Send these requests to our support team.
