A slave's role or job was to do what he was trained to do or whatever his owner told him to do. They had various responsibilities depending on their education and skills. Some were cooks, some Accountants, some secretaries, some farms hands, and some were in charge of children---any job you can think of could be carried out by a slave.

It was usually just to do with the wealth of the slave [but not always, it was illegal, but some slave dealers captured free-born children]. But lots of slaves were not from Rome, or were from a different part of the world.
