Can I Switch Between Expert & Customer Accounts?

Can I Switch Between Expert & Customer Accounts?

No — on Hire Local, you cannot switch between roles within the same account. To keep things simple and avoid confusion:

🔒 Each role requires a separate account with a different email address.

Why Separate Accounts?

  • Keeps job and message history separate
  • Avoids mixing up your hiring and service activity
  • Allows you to have two different profiles — one for finding work, one for posting jobs
  • Makes account management and support easier

How to Set Up Both Roles

If you want to use Hire Local as both a customer and an expert, you’ll need to:

  1. Create one account using Email #1 for your customer profile
  2. Log out, then register a second account using Email #2 for your expert profile

Each account will have its own login, dashboard, and notifications.

Tip

Use two different email addresses you check regularly. If needed, you can:

  • Use a work email for one and a personal email for the other
  • Set up a free secondary email with Gmail, Outlook, etc.
