In another thread Mr. Wordy wrote: "It's not clear to me what "that" refers to in the second sentence, but I guess the recipient may know what you mean. The terms "export colleagues" and "import colleagues" sound a bit weird to me. Do you mean co-workers whose job it is to run import/export jobs?"

My question is can we take out "it" from the last sentence and just say : Do you mean co-workers whose job is to run import/export jobs?"

Is not the last "jobs" superfluous?

Yes and yes, but perhaps jobs= operations in the second instance.
