Position Overview
Are you an enthusiastic, bubbly Personal Assistant? I am a vibrant and fun-loving lady, who perhaps fails to understand that she’s too old to be doing a full-time PhD! (in an exciting period of Scottish history!)
After multiple leg and knee injuries, I am unable to stand for more than about five minutes and I cannot walk more than a few feet within my house. I am looking to fill multiple timeslots during days and early evenings each week for at-home help, enabling me to regain freedom and independence within my home.
Lucky enough to have lived in several European capitals, I really love Italian and French cuisine. I have recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and am moving towards a vegan diet to quickly alleviate rapidly escalating blood sugar. An important aspect of the work is cooking daily meals, and any experience with vegan cooking would be an added plus.
Responsibilities
* Assist with daily household tasks and personal care while staying primarily within the home.
* Prepare and cook daily vegan meals in accordance with dietary requirements.
* Provide support during morning and late afternoon‑early evening periods as negotiated.
* Manage time effectively across multiple short shifts (approximately 2‑2.5 hours each).
Qualifications
* Preferred: students or individuals with a background in healthcare‑related fields.
* Experience with vegan cooking is beneficial.
* Good communication and punctuality skills.
Schedule & Pay
Rate of pay is £12.87 per hour.
Shift times are to be negotiated. The role offers up to 20 hours per week, mostly in the morning and late afternoon‑early evening. Each shift will be about 2‑2.5 hours.
Applications from people looking to work for only one slot a week are welcome.
Application Procedure
To apply, please send your CV and a cover letter explaining why you would be well suited to this position to Eleanor.Johnson2021@gmail.com and quote reference "NJ WN Ed.".
