My current Personal Assistant is preparing for retirement, so I’m looking for someone friendly and reliable to support me at home and out in the community who can takeover from her.
The role includes helping with general household tasks such as light cleaning, laundry, and preparing meals, snacks, and drinks.
You’d also be supporting me in getting out and about — whether that’s going shopping, visiting a café, enjoying a trip to the cinema or theatre, or just exploring what’s going on locally or just enjoying nature.
I have a real interest in wildlife, dogs, and history — so if you share any of those passions, that’s a lovely bonus! I enjoy staying connected with the world around me, and I’d love a PA who can help make those moments happen.
I do have a Motability vehicle, so it would be ideal if you're able (or willing to learn) to drive it in the future.
If this sounds like a role you'd enjoy, I’d love to hear from you!
Duties include:
- Other relevant duties as required
- Housekeeping
- Shopping
- Cooking
- Transportation
- Companionship
- Gardening
- Sometimes I might need support with washing my hair.
Candidate qualities:
- Respectful of the employer's privacy and confidentiality
- Reliable with good timekeeping
- Able to both follow instructions and work on own initiative
- Hygienic, tidy and well organised
- Fit and healthy to undertake the required duties
- Patient and possess excellent interpersonal skills
- Honest and cheerful
- Creative
- Able to speak and read English to a reasonable standard
- Must be comfortable with pets
- Able to always work to high standards of health & safety
