Be part of the adventure! Personal Assistant Role (G53 area)

Be part of the adventure! Personal Assistant Role (G53 area)

I am a loving, happy young boy who enjoys being active and getting out and about. I have lots of energy and love to keep busy throughout the day.

I have a cheeky sense of humour, and I enjoy interacting with people in my own way. I love being outdoors, as well as relaxing with my phone or going to the cinema.

What makes me smile:

  • Keeping busy and staying active
  • Trips to the park and beach
  • Swimming and water play
  • Exploring new places safely
  • Building dens and spending time outdoors
  • Being around someone who understands me
  • Attending my other services

About the role:

This is a fun and rewarding role, supporting me to enjoy my activities safely.

  • Hours: 11 hours per week- Saturday and Sunday, plus after-school hours to be agreed with my other PA. This will be discussed at interview.
  • £13.60 per hour
  • Flexibility required: depending on activities and support needs.

You will work alongside an experienced PA, with full support from my family.

What we’ll do together:

No two days are the same! Activities might include:

  • Parks, beaches and long walks
  • Visits to soft play and swimming
  • Outdoor adventures and exploring
  • Visiting places like the zoo and trying new activities
  • I prefer quieter environments, as busy places can feel overwhelming for me.

Support required:

  • Support to stay safe at all times
  • I can be very active and may run; I need you to be able to keep up with me
  • Calm support during times when I’m feeling frustrated
  • Support with communication (I am non-verbal and communicate in my own way)

About you:

I am looking for someone who is:

  • Energetic and enjoys being active
  • Patient, calm and understanding
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Willing to build a relationship (this can take time)
  • Experience of autism and ADHD would be helpful but is not essential
  • A driver is essential, with access to their own car.
