Job, task and errand all refer to some type of work. A task is a set of actions that accomplish a goal. Usually a task is short in duration. An errand is a type of task that requires a short trip. A job is usually work that is done on an ongoing basis or over a long period of time. Jobs may involve many tasks and errands. However, some jobs might be small enough to be called tasks.

When referring to job responsabilities, the work "task" is much more common. According to Sana's definition, the word "errand" would normally be used if you have to leave the office for something, like to deliver something to a client, or go buy some office supplies. Even in that case, "running an errand" could be considered a "task". Also, we use different verbs in association with each of those words, for example: You "perform a task". You "run an errand".
