Paignton, Torbay, United Kingdom This is Me Agency Full time

Self-Employed in-person support worker opportunity in Bovey Tracey and Paignton
At This is Me Agency we support people with barriers to succeed in their work place.

Our clients come from a variety of backgrounds and are all either employed or self employed running their own businesses.

Our dedicated support workers empower our clients to unleash their full potential, offering assistance across an array of tasks such as administrative duties, organisation and planning, as well as business development and marketing.

We're looking for a self-employed support worker to assist our client in their professional setting. Our client works in the social work sector, dividing their work between home and office environments. The support worker must be flexible to work in both Bovey Tracey and Paignton.

Support duties include but aren't limited to:

  • Note-taking during meetings, discussing these with the client after
  • Proofreading written work, identifying any errors as well as suggesting any improvements where necessary
  • Breaking tasks into chunks and discussing these to ensure the client has a full understanding of the expectations on them
  • Wellbeing support, including ensuring the client takes a break during their working day
Please be aware that in meetings, you may have access to confidential information. Maintaining professionalism and exercising discretion at all times is a must.

About This is Me Agency.


In 2019, our director and founder Michelle set out to create a new business that would support and enable people with chronic illnesses, disabilities, and barriers to work.

Having been a support worker herself, Michelle had seen the Access To Work programme in action, and saw the difference it could make to people's lives.

With this in mind, This Is Me Agency was born - to empower clients to reach their full potential, help clients gain meaningful support and create a great network of clients and support workers in the process.
