How to Add a Manager to Your Google Business Profile

You can let someone help manage your restaurant without sharing your Google password.

Google's interface may change over time. The wording or position of some buttons may look slightly different on your account.

  1. Step 1

    Sign in with the restaurant account

    Sign in to the Google account that owns or manages your restaurant.

  2. Step 2

    Search for your restaurant

    Search for your restaurant name on Google, then open the matching Business Profile or Maps listing.

    Google search example showing Cafe near me, the kind of search guests use to find a restaurant.
    Official Google example Search the restaurant name, then open the matching listing.

  3. Step 3

    Open Business Profile settings

    From your Business Profile, open the menu and choose Business Profile settings.

    Google Business Profile menu with Business Profile settings highlighted.
    Google Business Profile interface Open Business Profile settings from the menu.

  4. Step 4

    Open People and access

    From your Business Profile, open Business Profile settings, then People and access. You are looking for the list of people who can already manage the profile.

    People and access screen showing Add, a primary owner and a pending manager. Names are covered.
    Google Business Profile interface Open People and access, then choose Add. Private names in this example are covered.

  5. Step 5

    Choose Add

    Choose Add to invite someone new. Do not share the owner password.

  6. Step 6

    Enter the person's Google account email

    Type the helper's own Google account email. They should accept the invitation with that account, not by signing in as you.

  7. Step 7

    Select Manager

    Choose Manager. Manager access is usually enough for someone helping you update your restaurant information.

    Add person screen with an email field, Owner and Manager roles, and Invite. Manager is selected.
    Google Business Profile interface Enter the helper's email, select Manager, then choose Invite.

  8. Step 8

    Choose Invite

    Send the invitation. After the person accepts, they can help update the profile. You should still appear as the owner.

Keep the owner account in the restaurant

If someone only needs to help for a short time, a manager invitation is enough. The restaurant should still control the owner login, domain and website.
