Spot the employers who joined and never posted, in one view.
The companies view now shows, for every employer on your board, whether their profile is complete, how many admins they have, how many roles they have posted and have open, and when they were last active. Working out which employers need a nudge no longer means opening each one in turn.
What changed in the companies view
A member company is an employer invited onto your board to manage its own staff and post its own roles. Boards accumulate them steadily, and until now the only way to tell a busy employer from one that signed up in March and never came back was to open each record and read it. The companies view changelog entry covers the new columns in full.
- Every member company is listed with profile completeness, admin count, roles posted, roles open and last activity.
- Companies must finish their company profile before they can create or publish a role.
- People asking to join a company now say whether they want employee or admin access, and that intent carries through onboarding, approval and the notification emails.
- Anyone waiting on admin approval is no longer asked for job seeker details they do not need, and those prompts return if the request is resolved without admin access.
- A company's roles list has a search box, roles can be added from a shortcut in the main menu, and help sits alongside the role form.
- A role with no applicants yet explains what to do next rather than showing nothing, and sharing guidance is hidden on restricted roles that cannot be shared publicly.
These are member companies, not employer profiles. Employer profiles are the brands your own team posts on behalf of. Member companies are employers who joined and post for themselves. Both can sit on the same board, and the distinction decides which screen you go to.
What it means for your community
Candidates stop landing on opportunities backed by half-finished employer information. A role with no employer description and no sense of who is behind it is the kind of listing that makes a member wonder whether the board is curated at all, and on a board whose entire value is curation that doubt is expensive.
Take a skills bootcamp that has spent a year building employer partnerships for placements. Learners judge the programme partly by the employers on its board, so a partner who joined enthusiastically, posted once and left a thin profile behind does more harm than a partner who never joined. The profile completion gate means that role cannot go live in that state, and the job board for skills bootcamps keeps placement evidence tied to employers who are genuinely engaged.
An outplacement provider has the same need on a shorter clock. Time to placement drives client satisfaction and contract renewal, and volume spikes arrive without warning, so knowing which employers are live right now decides where a consultant spends the afternoon. Roles open per company, sitting next to last activity, answers that in one screen rather than five, which is the kind of detail that makes a job board for outplacement services workable at volume.
What it means for your team
Employer relationship management stops being guesswork reconstructed from memory. Roles posted set against roles open separates the employer who posts constantly and closes nothing from the one who posted twice and filled both. Admin count catches the single-admin employer whose one admin has since left the company, which is the quiet way a partnership dies without anyone noticing.
The profile gate removes a policing job rather than adding one. Nobody has to review new employers for completeness, because an incomplete company cannot publish. The employee-or-admin question on join requests does something similar at the other end, routing a hiring manager as an admin from the start instead of walking them through job seeker onboarding and then correcting it by hand.
None of this replaces board-level numbers. Company activity tells you who to call, while member analytics and exportable reporting tell you whether the board as a whole is working, and the two answer different questions for different audiences.
Do employers have to pay to post on your board?
Only if you want them to. Employer-paid posting is fully supported and there is no revenue share, so you keep 100% of any posting fees you charge. Plenty of boards never charge at all and use employer posting alongside the roles their own team curates. Inviting employers to join and post is included from the Pro plan at £119 per month billed yearly, correct as at August 2026 on the pricing page, and admin seats are unlimited and free on every plan, so an employer adding five of its own colleagues costs you nothing.
Getting started
The companies view sits in Manage Marketplace under the Employers Joined tab, where the new columns appear with no setup required. The marketplace admin guide covers inviting employers and approving join requests, and the knowledge base answers the questions that come up when an employer's first role does not appear. Spacewalk runs a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and a board goes live in about an hour.
