We are looking for caring, reliable and motivated Personal Assistants to join our dedicated team in Victoria Service.
As a Personal Assistant, you will provide person-centred support, helping the people we support to live independently, achieve their personal goals and take part in the activities that matter most to them.
Support may include:
- Personal care and maintaining personal wellbeing

The Victoria Service is looking for enthusiastic personal assistants who can help to make a real difference to people we support. Victoria is a Mental Health Recovery service which provides 24/7 support to 13 adults. When people come to the Victoria service, they aspire to develop their daily living skills which would help them move into their own tenancy or a less supported environment.
Let us introduceyou to J:
It’s important to me to be as independent as possible. I need support to enhance my daily living skills. I like to make the most out of life and enjoy Elvis’s tribute nights, going out for meals, shopping especially for new clothes. I like to work in the garden within the service. I really enjoy art and music. Sometimes, I like to visit the car boot sale and charity shops to see if I can get a bargain.
Will you bring your best so J can live his best life?
No experience? No problem. You don't need previous experience in care to start a rewarding career with Enable. We recruit based on values, attitude and transferable skills. Whether you've worked in retail, hospitality, customer service or are looking for a completely new challenge, we'll provide the training, support and development opportunities you need to succeed.
