Job Ref CC SS, Part-time female Personal Assistant - St Leonards

Part-time Female Personal Assistant
Location: St Leonards
Closing date: Open
Pay: £12.32 per hour
Shifts: 2 x 3.5 hour shifts (12-3.30pm approx) Mon – Sun (set days/times to be agreed)
Type: Permanent
Annual Leave: 5.6 weeks (pro-rata)

This is a rewarding post for a caring person who enjoys vegetarian cooking and helping others. I am a creative woman who is housebound with severe ME and needs a kind, reliable, and committed Personal Assistant (PA). The primary duties involve shopping for and cooking healthy vegetarian food, which must be blended due to gastric issues.

Main Duties:

1. Shop for, cook, and blend food
2. Bring shopping
3. Domestic tasks like cleaning my small flat
4. Trim a very small garden
5. Pick up prescriptions, take packages/collect from the post office, unpack deliveries, recycling
6. Push wheelchair if I need to get to an appointment
7. Any other reasonable task

I need a caring non-smoker with experience in cooking healthy vegetarian food and recipes to follow. I feel very unwell and require someone who is calm and sensitive.

Due to low immunity, I need a PA who isn\’t regularly exposed to sources of viral infection (e.g., young children) and who will notify me if they or someone living with them has any viral symptoms. For this reason, it is unlikely to suit someone living in a flatshare.

I am looking for someone to work regular agreed shifts and commit long-term, so the post is unlikely to suit students. Please do not apply unless you are sure you can commit and meet the criteria, as it is challenging for me to recruit replacement staff.

Please indicate your available times/days and provide two referees. Thank you!
