ChesterleStreet, United Kingdom Disability North on behalf of end employer Full time

**Have you ever wanted a job assisting an ambitious individual to achieve their goals?**

**Wage**: £10.60 per hour

Weekend work available. 12-hour shifts. Shifts to be discussed with applicant. Potential for shift flexibility in the future.

**Location**: Birtley, County Durham, DH3

There is an opening to work as part of my small team of personal assistants. The main criteria of the role is that we get on, but you should be able to work on your own initiative when I am busy, to maintain organisation and cleanliness of my house whilst assisting me to optimize my productivity in many areas of my life. The role essentially involves working with me and helping me succeed at my long-term goals. I am a Theoretical Physics student with a love of all things uni-life.

I like going for coffee, going to music/orchestra events, attending political and science conferences, productivity and optimisation, career driven, football, UFC, going to museums, visiting heritage sites and the occasional night out. If you like any of the things above, I may just have the ideal job for you. These are not limited to.

Now for the small print - the post involves you basically being my hands, as I cannot physically do things for myself due to having Spinal Muscular Atrophy (type 2). I will need help with cooking, eating, getting dressed, personalised support, driving my car (not essential) and anything else that I require. It would be ideal if you are flexible, able to cover other PA's holidays and absences and available to travel if necessary; however not essential, as long as you can commit to a shift pattern. If this sounds like a job you would be interested in, I would love to hear from you

It is the job of a personal assistant to enable me to carry out personal, domestic, and social tasks. The personal assistant will work under my direction to meet my requirements for physical assistance. They should always ask first what I require, continuously listening and acting upon my requests and under my directions.

The personal assistant should be able to handle the physical tasks of hoisting, handling, pushing, pulling, and bending. The personal assistant does not need to be physically strong to do the job well. However, good general health and stamina are important.

If you have any questions about the role, please don’t hesitate to drop me a message or call on **07710900052**
