Understand Teams and User Roles

Last updated: July 10, 2026

Teams help you organize your workforce by grouping job posts, contracts, and activity by department, project, or function.

What Is a Team?

On Lifted, Teams help ensure that:

  • Work is organized by the appropriate department, project, or region.

  • Users only see the job posts, contracts, and data relevant to their Team.

  • Reporting reflects activity within each Team.

Companies commonly create Teams based on department, brand, or region to manage hiring, collaboration, and spend more effectively.

How Your Account Is Structured

Lifted is organized into a global workspace and Teams, which together control how work and visibility are managed.

Global Workspace

Provides visibility across:

  • Job posts

  • Contracts

  • Timesheets

  • Transactions

Teams

Provide segmented visibility by:

  • Department

  • Project

  • Billing entity

Admins have visibility across the entire workspace, while Hiring Managers are scoped to their assigned Team.

How Teams Work

When assigned to a Team:

  • Hiring managers of any Team can view all talent in the Talent Pool.

  • Hiring Managers can only view Job Posts, Contracts, Timesheets, Payments, and Reports related to their Team.

  • Reporting is limited to activity within that Team.

This structure helps maintain visibility controls while supporting collaboration across departments.
