About The Tradies PA | Your Trusted Partner in Industry Support

Our story

Right from the start, our mission has been to drive positive change.

Every skilled craftsman understands the significance of having the right tools and expertise. For tradies, mastering their craft is paramount. Yet, in the background, there exists a world of administrative tasks, missed calls, and the ever-evolving landscape of social media platforms. It was this very gap, combined with the universal truth that time is our most precious resource, that inspired Mathew Mangnall to establish The Tradies PA.

Today, The Tradies PA stands as a testament to Mathew’s unwavering commitment and vision. It embodies his belief in the transformative power of expert assistance, underpinned by his extensive training in Business Management, Workplace Health and Safety (WHS), and customer service. We are not simply another service – we are your strategic partner, passionately embracing the challenges you face and motivated to help you excel in your trade, all while achieving a harmonious work-life balance.

Katie

Social Media Manager/Office Entertainer

I’m Katie – a lively and bubbly spirit in the office. You’ll find me managing a bunch of social media accounts and creating some eye-catching marketing campaigns. (And pole dancing on a hat stand, while trying to fit as many marshmallows as possible in my mouth. But we won’t talk about that.)

Jane

Social Media & PA Junior/Office Mum

I’m a self-confessed organisational goddess. I dive right into sorting through emails, and shopping for Christmas presents! It’s conclusive: I’ve got a bunch of tricks up my sleeve.

Alongside my daily tasks, I manage to keep Luke and Katie on the straight and narrow. That’s impressive – because it’s a task that resembles herding cats.

Jodie Seabrook

Meet our very own globetrotting, everything-in-its-place, fix-anything guru, Jodie!

From bleeding radiators to coordinating your kitchen makeover, or organising your dream vacation, Jodie’s got your back. And we’re willing to bet that whatever task you have at hand, she can do it in half the time.

Jodie is our in-house event maestro. Organisation and planning aren’t just her skills, they’re in her DNA. Need something fixed? No problem. Jodie’s virtual toolkit and know how are always at the ready.

But life isn’t all work for our superwoman. When she’s not orchestrating the lives of everyone around her, you’ll find her up at the crack of dawn, strolling under the sunrise with her trusty canine sidekick, Ralph.

If Jodie were a superhero, her power would be turning chaos into order faster than you can say “go!”. With her around, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

Amy

Copywriter & Social Media Exec/ Pedant

As an obnoxious 6-year-old, I used to regularly get up from my chair to edit other people’s work and correct their spelling. I’ve gotten better at it since, and (hopefully) more tactful in my approach.

Bringing virtual vibes from my home office, I’m a copywriter who lives and breathes autobiographical storytelling.

With 2 drama degrees under my belt and a specialism in autobiographical theatre, taking real-life stories and turning them into bitesize, enjoyable nuggets is my whooole jam.

I’ll make your content and comment replies sound like you. But better.

Rio

Head of Security

It’s Rio’s world. We’re all just living in it.

Rio’s a tiny queen (and a bit of a Karen, depending on what mood she’s in).

Special skills: Rio only weighs 1.4kg, but can take down an average male in under 4 seconds. She can run at the speed of light, and she can plank for 3 days straight.

Dislikes: computers, paperwork, and people. Oh, and crocs.

Rocco

Food and Beverage Manager

A handsome man indeed, Rocco is all about the chill vibes. Whether it’s a sirloin steak or a cherry chapstick, he’s always happy to tuck into some quality grub.

Special skills: Rocco can eat approximately 17x his body weight (in a single sitting). He can also sleep standing up, and he invented the glue on Postit notes.

Dislikes: Exercise. Wild swimming. Empty food bowls. And the term “circle back”.
