Overview

Jobber is a Canadian (Edmonton-based) field service management platform widely used by small trades businesses including plumbers, electricians, landscapers, cleaners, and pest control operators. It covers scheduling and dispatch, client management, quoting and invoicing, online booking, and payment collection. The Core plan starts at approximately €25 per month flat, with higher tiers adding route optimisation, automated client follow-ups, and two-way SMS. Jobber integrates with QuickBooks Online and Xero for accounting. It is hosted on US and Canadian infrastructure with no dedicated EU data region, which Irish businesses should factor into their GDPR assessment. Stripe is the primary payment gateway; GoCardless is not currently supported. Jobber does not offer configurable Irish or UK VAT rates, and has no support for RCT or Reverse Charge VAT - those obligations must be handled through the accounting integration.

Editor's verdict on Jobber

stamped 2026-09-03

Jobber is one of the most widely adopted field service tools for small trades businesses globally and is a reasonable starting point for Irish plumbers, electricians, landscapers, or cleaners with a tight budget. The flat-rate pricing is transparent and the interface is genuinely easy to learn. The key gaps for Irish operators are the lack of Irish VAT configuration and no EU data residency - GDPR-conscious businesses should review the data processing agreement carefully. RCT and Reverse Charge VAT for construction are not handled here; route those through Xero or QuickBooks. It sits at the simpler end of the market; growing contractors with complex contract or FM work will outgrow it.
