The job owner is the person designated as the responsible contact for an advertised position. You can change the job owner at any time, provided the selected person holds the necessary role permissions.
How to change the job owner
Open the relevant job and go to the "Overview" tab.
Scroll to the "Recruiting teams" section and click the three dots.
Select "Change job owner."
Select the desired user and confirm the security prompt by clicking the "Change" button.
Important notes
By default, the job owner is the one who originally created the job. However, you can change the job owner at any time.
If the job owner is displayed on the advertisement, after changing the job owner in the job under the “Job Exchanges” tab, you must manually update the display once so that the new contact person appears correctly on the career page. The update is not automatic.
Only a single job holder can be assigned at a time. Multiple assignment is not possible.
