Support worker/Personal Assistant/Live-in
7 days ago
Job Summary
This isn't your typical 9-5 job. You'll be part of a small, consistent team supporting one person, who is rebuilding his independence after a brain injury. This Rota is designed very carefully to give consistent continuity of care and works best when supported by the same small team in a predictable pattern. That's why we use the 3 days on / 6 days off cycle. It means you'll always know your work schedule well in advance, while also ensuring trust and progress with a familiar routine.
Fixed 3 Days On, 6 Days Off Pattern. That's more time for family, travel, hobbies, or a second income stream - while still earning a stable, competitive salary.
Full UK Manual Driving License required & DBS check required.
Key Responsibilities
Support with daily routines and rehab activities
Driving and assisting on outings (day trips, camper van adventures, social activities)
Being a calm overnight presence (9-hour sleep-in shifts)
Encouraging independence and confidence
Responding with patience if frustrations arise
Working closely with two other PAs to keep support consistent
Who We're Looking For
- Must be aged 30+ (Driver insurance requirements)
- Full Uk Driver's License and confident to drive a large vehicle
- Caring, patient, and positive in your approach
- Creative and motivated to help someone grow in confidence
- Reliable and comfortable working 3-day live-in shifts
- Experience in brain injury or rehab support is great, but not essential
- Most importantly: you understand the importance of consistency in this very personal role and are happy to commit to the fixed Rota system
What We Offer
A predictable Rota system: 3 days on, 6 days off (repeats every 28 days)
A healthy £28,000 annual salary. Overtime available to cover sickness and holidays
Paid overnight sleep-in shifts
A friendly, supportive small team (not a huge agency)
The chance to make a genuine difference in someone's life
If this sounds like the opportunity you've been waiting for, we'd love to hear from you
Please send your CV along with a short cover letter explaining: Why this role excites you, and any relevant experience or transferable skills.
