The work
Tasks this hire takes
A virtual assistant for plumbers books jobs, sends quotes and chases the invoice.
The plumber still prices the work and does the job.
Two jobs shape a normal week for plumbers: Book callouts into ServiceM8 or Tradify, and send the quote the plumber already priced. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.
Book callouts into ServiceM8 or Tradify
Send the quote the plumber already priced
Text the arrival window the tech confirmed
Chase the invoice after the job is marked done
Order parts the plumber approved
Book callouts into ServiceM8 or Tradify. For plumbers, that work sits beside ServiceM8, Tradify or Fergus. The principal still makes the call above it.
Send the quote the plumber already priced. Ask each finalist for plumbers when they last did this, and whether they did it in ServiceM8, Tradify or Fergus.
The brief for plumbers should treat this as a standing job: text the arrival window the tech confirmed. ServiceM8, Tradify or Fergus is where the office checks it.
Chase the invoice after the job is marked done. If the hire has not used ServiceM8, Tradify or Fergus, the first month for plumbers includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.
Order parts the plumber approved. For plumbers, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.
Day one
Software in the brief
Name ServiceM8, Tradify or Fergus in the brief for plumbers when the hire will use it in the first week.
Say whether SMS for the on-the-way message is required on day one for plumbers, or taught after the start.
A short task in Xero for the invoice the plumber coded can be part of the interview for plumbers, if you want to see the work.
You grant access to A job board the techs open each morning. For plumbers, the hire should have that login before week two.

The line
Compliance boundary
The hire does not price plumbing work or sign a compliance certificate.
For plumbers, the interview repeats the boundary above. The hire should be able to say what they will not decide.

The first 90 days
- 01
Days 1 to 30 for plumbers are for learning ServiceM8, Tradify or Fergus and the way the office already hands work across.
- 02
By day 60 this should be routine for plumbers: Text the arrival window the tech confirmed.
- 03
The day-90 review asks one question for plumbers: is “Order parts the plumber approved” happening without you chasing it?
What we ask before we search
- On the call for plumbers, we ask who does this today: book callouts into ServiceM8 or Tradify.

- For plumbers, we ask you to say the line a new starter must not cross.
Shared hours are written into the brief for plumbers before anyone is approached.
