Job description

Are you proactive and want to make a difference to my day? If so, then please keep reading.
Please note that Capability Scotland are not the employers, but acting on our client’s behalf who is the employer

My name is Bruce, and I am a 56-year-old gentleman who lives in Clarencefield, near Dumfries with my wife and 2 friendly labradors. I had a stroke a few years ago and use a powered wheelchair to get around as I have left side paralysis and am an amputee. This does not stop me enjoying life and getting out and about in my wheelchair accessible vehicle (manual). I am very active and like to go bowling both indoor and outdoor and swimming. I also enjoy a good game of chess, cards or board games. I used to enjoy cooking, so I am looking for someone to help me to shop and prepare to make the odd evening meal for myself and my wife.

Job Details:

I am looking for a personal assistant for 20 hours per week at £12.00 per hour. You would be required on a Tuesday and Thursday from 10.00 am – 3.00 pm and the other 10 hours are flexible and will be discussed further at interview as on occasion you may have to attend hospital appointments with me. You must have a clean driving license as you will have the use of my vehicle to take me out and about. Full training will be given in the use of the vehicle.

Ideal Candidate:

The ideal candidate should be outgoing, proactive, enthusiastic, and enjoy a good chat about anything from architecture to motorbikes and anything in between.

This post is subject to a suitable PVG check.
