Employees

Employees are people who work at a location. Gridwork lets you track their profile information and build structured CVs with experience and education entries.

Viewing employees

Navigate to Employees in the sidebar. The list shows all employees across your account. You can filter by location or search by name to find specific people.

Employees are listed by job title seniority: whoever holds the title at the top of your hierarchy appears first, and people without a job title come last. Set that hierarchy under Settings → Job Titles (see below). Within one job title, employees are listed by surname.

Job title hierarchy

Under Settings → Job Titles, drag the rows to put your job titles in order. The title at the top is the most senior.

That order is used everywhere employees appear:

• Employee lists in the dashboard, including the lists on a company and a location.
• The data Gridwork sends to a connected website, so your team page shows the practice owner before the trainee without anyone editing the website.

Adding a new job title places it at the bottom. Drag it where it belongs.

Changing the order never changes who is assigned to which title — it only changes the order things are shown in.

Adding an employee

1. Click Add Employee.
2. Select the location this employee belongs to.
3. Fill in the profile fields:
   • First name and last name (required).
   • Role — Their job title or position.
   • Gender — Optional.
   • Profile image URL — Optional photo.
4. Click Save to create the employee record.

Editing an employee

Use the Edit action on any employee row to update their profile fields. To move an employee to a different location, edit the location assignment in the same form.

Employee CV

Each employee can have a detailed CV with two types of entries:

• Experience — Work history items (title, company, duration, description).
• Education — Academic qualifications (institution, degree, dates).

To manage a CV, open the employee's detail page.

Tip: CVs are especially useful if you publish employee profiles on your website or use them in marketing materials.

Deleting an employee

Deleting an employee removes their profile and CV data permanently. This action cannot be undone.
