A job changes list monitors a group of people and fires an alert — via email or webhook — whenever someone on the list moves to a new role or company. Job changes are high-signal moments: a former champion at a churned account just joined a new company, a founder you've been tracking just left their startup, a key buyer moved to a competitor. CTD surfaces these signals so you can act on them while they're still relevant.
Two types: static and dynamic
Static job changes list
You upload a specific set of LinkedIn profile URLs. CTD monitors exactly those people and notifies you when any of them changes roles.
Best for: tracking a defined set of individuals — former customers, known executives, candidates who turned down an offer, champions at churned accounts.
Dynamic job changes list
You define a set of companies and a target persona (e.g., "CEOs and co-founders," "VPs of Sales," "CTOs"). CTD continuously tracks job changes for anyone matching that persona at those companies — including people who join the companies in the future.
Best for: monitoring a whole category of people across many companies, such as tracking leadership movements across an entire portfolio, a sector, or a list of target accounts.
Walkthrough
Notification options
When a job change is detected, you can receive the alert two ways — and you can enable both at the same time:
Email notifications
CTD sends an email summary of recent job changes from your list. You can configure the frequency (immediate, daily digest, weekly digest). The email includes the person's name, their previous role, their new role and company, and a direct link to their CTD profile.
Webhooks
CTD posts a JSON event payload to a URL you provide whenever a job change is detected. This lets you route the signal directly into Slack, your CRM, a Zapier workflow, or any other system that can receive a webhook.
The webhook payload includes the person's name, previous company and title, new company and title, LinkedIn URL, and a timestamp.
Use cases
VC firm tracking job changes at 500 portfolio-adjacent companies
A venture fund creates a dynamic job changes list targeting 500 founder-stage and seed-stage companies with a persona of "Founder, Co-founder, or CEO." When any of those people leaves their current company — to start a new venture, join another company, or step aside — the fund's team gets an alert. These transitions are often moments when founders need new relationships, capital, or introductions, and being first to reach out matters.
Sales team monitoring champions at churned or stalled accounts
A sales team uploads a static list of former champions — people who were advocates for their product at accounts that churned or went dark. When any of those champions moves to a new company, CTD fires an alert. The AE reaches out with a warm, personalized note ("I saw you moved to Acme — congrats! I'd love to reconnect...") before the champion has had a chance to evaluate new vendors at their new role.
Recruiting firm tracking passive candidates
A recruiting firm maintains a static job changes list of senior engineers who declined offers or weren't a fit 12–18 months ago. When any of them changes jobs — a signal that they're open to movement — the recruiter gets an alert and reaches out at the most receptive moment in a candidate's career.
Strategic partnerships tracking decision-maker arrivals
A head of partnerships creates a dynamic job changes list targeting 50 key accounts in their ecosystem with a persona of "VP of Business Development or VP of Partnerships." When a new person takes that role at any of those companies, it's a natural moment to introduce the partnership opportunity to someone who hasn't already said no.
