An adventurous and rewarding position as a Personal Assistant is available for a dynamic individual who can assist with daily caregiving and household tasks. The role involves collaborative projects and potential travel, offering a unique chance to contribute to creative and philanthropic endeavors. Ideal for an energetic young woman eager for adventure and creativity, this position is set in Gotland and beyond.
Personal Assistant: Caregiver, Adventuress (and Potential Actress) Wanted
• Who am I:
My name is Tom, and I am an adventurer and media entrepreneur based on Gotland, Sweden. Following an old motorcycle accident that broke my neck and cost me my left arm, I underwent surgery three years ago that left me a C4 quadriplegic (permanent partial paralysis from the neck down). In the 90s, I founded the Swedish radio station Bandit Rock. I am also a father, writer, and award-winning film director. Your main task will be to help me live as 'normally' as possible despite my new condition.
We are currently seeking a dynamic, positive, and capable PA to join our team, help with daily caregiving and other practical tasks, and potentially join us on exciting future projects.
I also have a philanthropic interest and hope to continue making a positive impact on the world. Google me (Thomas McAlevey) for more information.
• Your Role and Responsibilities:
• Assisting with daily personal care, including hygiene, dressing, and eating
• Managing household tasks such as shopping, cooking, and cleaning
• Supporting the development of new projects, including an off-road wheelchair and a unique accessible adventure RV
• Potentially participating in an adventure film project, which involves traveling and being on camera
• Assisting with physical therapy and rehabilitation exercises, including stretching
• Traveling with me as needed, acting as my 'hands' on trips
• Collaborating with my family, friends, and other assistants as necessary
• Your Qualifications:
• Energetic, quick learner with a positive attitude

• Physically fit and able to lift a 30 kg electric wheelchair
• Free to travel as needed, with a driver's license and your own reliable vehicle
• Computer-savvy and fluent in English for potential international travel and projects
• Experience in media, adventure, personal assistance, physical therapy, bookkeeping, mechanics, carpentry, massage, or caregiving are all pluses but NOT required
• Ideal for a vibrant young woman with a strong presence and charisma suitable for film projects
This is not just a personal assistant job; it's an opportunity to be part of inspiring and adventurous projects. You'll be contributing to meaningful initiatives while also having the chance to travel and be part of a potential film project. Life with me is very challenging but never boring.
LISTEN: I'm a perfectionist, a natural Alpha, a bit OCD, and I never stop talking... But I also get a lot done.
