Built by our local team of perfectionists!

Other industries have amazing automations in their software, so why can't tradies? This question was what brought the four of us together to build Service Ninja.

The Service Ninja team
Alex Gallagher

Alex Gallagher

Founder and product owner

Registered electrical inspector. Oversees the product end to end.

Alex is a registered electrical inspector who founded Legacy Electrical and grew it to a team of six. Before starting his own company he spent four years in commercial electrical maintenance, including fault finding on industrial machinery, and he still holds one of the more technically demanding licences in the trade.

Running Legacy meant running its admin. Over five years Alex used four different job management platforms and a stack of other apps patched around their gaps, while going deep on trade business coaching: pricing systems, staff KPIs, customer nurture, and outbound sales. That combination of hands-on operating experience and systems thinking is what he brought to Service Ninja when he partnered with Tim and John, moving into the product owner seat to design the system he'd spent five years wishing existed.

Meredith Gallagher

Meredith Gallagher

Visual design

Background in trade admin and teaching. Manages visual design elements.

Meredith spent years running the admin side of a trade business: quoting, invoicing, scheduling and chasing payments. She is married to Alex, and saw first-hand where every platform Legacy used fell short.

On Service Ninja she leads visual design, laying out the screens and workflows, and keeps the team focused on the people who use the product day to day.

Alex Gallagher

From the founder

“I ran my own trade business for years and tried all the big names in software. None of them did what I needed. I got sick of double handling, data entry, and my staff doing things that I knew clever automation tools could do. Other industries have these tools, so why shouldn't tradies? Service Ninja solves those problems, and I love it. I think you will too.”
