# Put a team under another team

Nest sub-teams under a parent team so your workspace mirrors your org structure.

A sub-team sits under a parent team. Pickers show it with its path, such as Product › Design.

**Who can do this:** changing a team's parent needs Manage teams for every team, Owners and Admins by default. See [Roles & permissions](https://help.brev.io/roles-and-permissions/#matrix).

## Move a team under a parent {#steps}

1. Open Settings. Under Workspace, click **Teams**.
2. On the team's row, open the ⋯ menu and choose **Edit team**.
3. Pick the **Parent team**. A team can't move under itself or one of its own sub-teams.
4. Click **Update Team**.

> **Tip: Success check**

> You see Team updated successfully. The parent's row gains an expand arrow with the team inside.

## Start a new sub-team {#new-subteam}

On the parent's page, click **New Subteam**. Add new team opens with the parent already set.

Deleting a parent keeps its sub-teams. They become top-level teams.
