Personal Assistant and Carer

We are offering opportunities for candidates who have little to no care experience and want to get into care work

Providing care for a 33-year-old wheelchair user living with his wife. I lead a busy life and work 4 days a week as a government Economist, so no two days are ever the same. You need to be a fit, motivated and respectful person to both me and my family. This role requires a compassionate, reliable, and skilled individual who can multitask and is dedicated to providing high-quality support and care. Organisational skills, common sense, thoroughness, efficiency and initiative are expected. It is essential that they are willing to contribute to living in a healthy family household, as I want to be able to live in a household where I contribute to the tasks as a normal family member would.
