The jobs you can hand off

Pick the one that keeps coming back.

Each is a responsibility a Hire can hold for you — written the way you'd describe it, with the kind of thing people actually hand over.

People hand it things like

  • Chase the supplier who still hasn't sent the invoice.
  • Circle back with the candidate I promised to update by Friday.
  • If the client goes quiet on the quote for a week, nudge them — and me.

Follow-through

Nothing falls through

Your Hire reads your inbox and messages, catches what you said you'd do, and holds each thread until it's closed — so the follow-ups leave your head.

People hand it things like

  • Every Monday, 8am: what moved on each project and what's due this week.
  • A run-through of my portfolio before I open my laptop.
  • What changed across my repos since standup.

Daily brief

Run my day

A short brief, assembled overnight and waiting when you start: what moved, what's due, what's gone quiet — so you begin oriented instead of assembling it yourself.

People hand it things like

  • Plan the launch, line up the vendors, and only come to me for the go/no-go.
  • Sort the party — venue, invites, food — and bring me the two choices that need me.

The loop

It comes back only when it needs you

Hand over the messy context; your Hire holds it, runs it, and comes back only for the call that's yours to make — with everything you need to make it.

People hand it things like

  • File the VAT return before the 12th — remind me a few days ahead.
  • Tell me before the domain and the registration renew.
  • The quarterly employer-tax filing — never let it sneak up again.

Deadlines

Chase the deadlines

Your Hire learns the rhythm of your filings, renewals, and payments and reaches out before each one is due — so the dates live with it, not in your head.

People hand it things like

  • Draft a reply to the refund request that just came in, in our voice.
  • Each morning, surface the three support emails that actually need me.
  • Flag anything from a customer that's been waiting more than a day.

Inbox

Answer the inbox

Your Hire sweeps the inbox on a schedule, surfaces the few that need you, and has a reply drafted in your tone with the sender's history pulled in — so you approve instead of starting cold.

People hand it things like

  • Tell me when a competitor changes their pricing page.
  • Watch their careers page and flag new senior roles.
  • Keep an eye on the AI labs and summarize only what actually shipped.

Monitoring

Watch what matters

Point your Hire at the sources you care about; it checks them, remembers what it already told you, and pings you only when something actually changed.

People hand it things like

  • Fill in verified LinkedIn URLs for all 40 people on this list.
  • Compile every agency in the country over 200 employees.
  • Recover and de-duplicate these 300 transcripts.

Long jobs

Hand off the long jobs

Give your Hire a big, multi-step task and walk away; it works through it in the background and comes back with the result, not a progress bar.

People hand it things like

  • Remember this client only replies on Fridays.
  • Keep track of who introduced me to whom.
  • Know that 'the board pack' means the Q3 deck, every time.

Memory

Remember my people

Mention a detail in passing and your Hire holds onto it — who replies when, what a nickname means, what a client cares about — and brings it back the moment it matters.

People hand it things like

  • Keep the launch board current from our commits and docs.
  • Run my job-search pipeline: new roles in, stages updated, stale ones flagged.
  • A leads board that fills itself with verified contacts.

Boards

Keep the board honest

Your Hire reads the real work and keeps your board or pipeline current on its own — moving cards, flagging what's gone stale — so it reflects reality, not your recollection.

People hand it things like

  • Turn this Google Sheet into a dashboard I can send the board.
  • Build a feedback form and host it at a link.
  • Spin up a comparison page for these options.

Build

Build me the thing

Describe a page, tool, or dashboard; your Hire builds it, wires it to your real data, and hosts it at a working link — so you get something to open and send, not code to deploy.

People hand it things like

  • Find three roofers near me, with quotes.
  • Price a multi-leg trip: Stockholm–Perth–China and back, in October.
  • Compare four companies across the same five lenses and hand me a brief.

Research

Do the legwork

Hand your Hire a real decision and it does the digging — sources, options, quotes, a recommendation you can check — so you decide instead of opening forty tabs.
