We’re looking for a warm, reliable and upbeat Personal Assistant to support a vibrant 21-year-old woman in her day-to-day life, both at home and out in the community. This role is all about helping her live her best life—encouraging independence, building confidence, and creating a fun, supportive environment where she can flourish.

As her PA, you’ll be involved in a variety of everyday activities, from assisting with tasks at home to accompanying her on outings and social activities. You’ll play a key role in helping her grow her independence while still offering the support she needs to thrive. No two days will be the same, and the right person will enjoy being part of a flexible, engaging and meaningful routine.

A full driver’s licence is essential, as you will need to be able to drive and be insured on the employer’s vehicle, though having your own vehicle is preferred. Most importantly, you’ll bring a positive attitude, a sense of initiative, and a genuine desire to make a difference in someone’s life.

If you’re someone who loves supporting others, enjoys encouraging autonomy, and wants a role that feels truly rewarding, we’d love to hear from you.
