To manage team members on your company’s Upwork client account, account owners or team admins can invite users, remove them (if not assigned to active contracts), or adjust their roles. These actions are done through the “Members & Permissions” section under Settings, using options to invite, edit roles, or remove team members as needed.
Sometimes multiple people in your organization need to work with freelancers on different projects, or play different roles in the freelancer search process. To coordinate these needs, you can have multiple team members on your company’s client account.
To add or remove team members or adjust their roles, you must be an account owner or team admin, and you cannot remove team members who are the contact person for active contracts.
