I am looking for a friendly, reliable and capable Personal Assistant to support me with some aspects of everyday life. This is a varied role for someone who enjoys being helpful, sociable and able to adapt to different days and situations. A good sense of humour is a must!

The role will include general housework, shopping and meal preparation, as well as accompanying me out and about. This could include social events, family days out and appointments such as doctors, hospital and dental visits. You may also provide support with general administration and correspondence.

I am looking for someone who is confident working independently, can use their own initiative and is flexible when plans change. Medical appointments can occasionally be at weekends, so some flexibility with hours is important. There may also be opportunities to provide additional cover for my other PA and during holidays.

Ideally, you will be an owner-driver with a full, clean driving licence, as this will make accompanying me to appointments and outings much easier.

If you are dependable, practical, friendly and enjoy making a positive difference to someone's day, I would love to hear from you.
