Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity where you can make a real difference while being part of a friendly and supportive team? We are looking for several PAs to join a dedicated team supporting a friendly 67-year-old man with a great sense of humour.
You will support him with day-to-day living and help him enjoy activities in the community. One of his goals is to attend swimming sessions at the Dolphins Club at Waves, so if you enjoy swimming or would like to get involved in community activities, this could be a great opportunity for you.
The team is close-knit, welcoming, and supportive, keeping in touch through a WhatsApp group to share information and help one another. We are recruiting multiple PAs, with opportunities for regular hours, job-share arrangements, bank work, sickness cover, and holiday cover.
This role is more than just a job – it is a chance to gain valuable experience, return to work, learn new skills, and be part of a fantastic team. Previous experience is not essential, as full support and training will be provided.
If you are caring, reliable, and would like to be part of something meaningful, we would love to hear from you.
