What are position templates?

Positions are templates you can use to post shifts, and hire Spotters who apply through the Spotwork app. Note that position templates MUST be created first before posting a shift on the platform.

Steps for creating position templates

Log into your Spotwork dashboard and go to “Positions” tab from the navigation menu. Alternatively, you can also access your positions through clicking the “Manage positions” button while on the “Shifts” page.

In this step, you can select the address for where the Spotter will report to. To start, you can enter a new address. Type in the address you would like the Spotters to report at and drag to adjust the pin on the map to mark the work site. We will use this location to check them in when they arrive. If you choose to save this address, it will be available under saved addresses the next time you create a position. Finish this step by entering the hourly wage.
