A Personal Assistant is required to join a small private home care team supporting a 46-year-old man in his own home.

The client has multiple health conditions and experiences periods of complete paralysis. The role includes providing personal support during these periods, including toileting support, repositioning limbs, ensuring comfort, and being available as a calm, trusted presence.

You may also be asked to help with light household or garden tasks, such as housework, hanging out washing, or other practical support. These tasks are important in helping reduce stress, which can worsen the client’s condition.

The client’s interests and work include tabletop gaming, roleplaying games, writing, cartography, Twitch streaming, and YouTube content creation. Much of his work is home based, so the successful applicant must be comfortable working in a home environment and providing support without being intrusive.

The role may suit someone who is calm, reliable, flexible, and able to occupy themselves quietly when direct support is not needed, while remaining available.

Current shifts are usually 10:00am to 4:00pm, with two fixed days per week, currently Friday and Saturday, plus an additional shared/rotating shift, currently on Wednesday. Some flexibility is required, and extra hours may be available to cover holidays or absence. Some weekend and overnight work may be required.

A driver would be beneficial but is not essential, as public transport is available nearby.

Applicants should state their availability when applying.
