This is a focused role. Your primary responsibility is to answer every call and enquiry that comes in, book jobs correctly, and ensure nothing is missed. You must not be overstretched with too many other clients, as responsiveness is critical to this role.
You will be the first point of contact for customers and your performance will be judged on how many jobs are successfully booked and how quickly you learn and understand the business.

- Allocate jobs logically based on partner availability and location
- Where possible, book jobs in the same area on the same day for partners already working locally
- Ensure partners covering multiple areas are not booked into different locations on the same day
- Monitor daily schedules to ensure all available capacity is used
- Flag booking issues or conflicts to management when needed
Skills & Experience
- Fluent English with a clear, confident telephone manner
- Strong customer service skills and comfortable speaking with customers all day
- Highly organised with strong attention to detail
- Comfortable using booking systems and CRMs, Tradify experience is a bonus
- Logical thinker with good geographical awareness
- Reliable, consistent, and able to commit to answering all calls and enquiries during working hours
- Suitable for a VA managing a small number of clients, not high volume multitasking
Hours & Pay
