About the Role
I am looking for a reliable, friendly and proactive Personal Assistant to provide practical support around my home. This is a domestic support role rather than personal care, helping me keep on top of household tasks so I can continue working and managing day-to-day life.
I work from home three days a week, so I'm looking for someone who is happy to work independently, using their own initiative while I'm working.
Duties
- Collect used cups, plates and other items from the sitting room and bedroom and take them to the kitchen.
- Empty the dishwasher.
- Put away clean dishes.
- Load and start the dishwasher.
- Tidy and wipe down kitchen worktops.
- Empty the kitchen bin when required.
- Empty the commode bin.
- Wipe down the commode (liners are used, so only a quick surface clean is required).
- Take items upstairs as needed.
- Open any curtains that are still closed and, where appropriate, open windows.
- Occasionally help me put on compression socks during colder weather.
Some Visits
- Put away grocery deliveries (fridge and freezer items will already have been put away before you arrive).
- Basic meal preparation, such as chopping vegetables.
- Load the washing machine.
- Move washing from the washing machine to the tumble dryer.
- Empty the tumble dryer.
- Hang up, fold and put away clean laundry.
- Change bed linen.
- Help with occasional decluttering and household organisation.
About You
- Reliable, trustworthy and punctual.
- Friendly and approachable.
- Organised and able to work independently.
- Happy to use their own initiative and get on with tasks without constant direction.
- Comfortable working in a home with several flights of stairs and carrying household items between floors.
- Comfortable around cats.
- Previous care or domestic support experience is preferred but not essential.
- Ideally up to date with any COVID-19 vaccinations they are eligible to receive.
A driving licence is not essential. If you do drive, a visitor parking permit can be arranged.
About Me
I live with my husband and our two cats.
I work from home three days a week and enjoy crochet, knitting, cross stitch, reading and gaming in my spare time.
I identify as queer, non-binary and Pagan, so it is important to me that my Personal Assistant is respectful, inclusive and open-minded. I'm looking for someone who is non-judgemental and comfortable working in an LGBTQ+ affirming home where everyone is treated with kindness and respect.
Additional Information
- This role does not involve washing, dressing or toileting support.
- No medication administration is required.
- There is a key safe at the property, and the successful applicant will be given their own access code.
- Additional privately funded hours may occasionally be available.
- A DBS check is not required for this role.
If you're looking for a flexible role supporting someone to maintain their home and would enjoy working in a welcoming, inclusive household, I'd love to hear from you.
