JOB PURPOSE
Personal Assistant Role – Clifton
We are seeking a reliable, friendly and organised Personal Assistant (PA) to provide personal and administrative support to a young woman in her mid-30s, based in Clifton.
The role will be predominantly home-based at her residence, though some administrative tasks may, by agreement, be completed remotely from the PA’s own home.

About the Role:
Hours per week:
If a single PA: 16 – 23.5 hours per week.
If 2 PAs: 8-12 hours per week.
£15/hour minimum during weekdays and £20/hour at weekends, possibly more depending on experience, qualifications and satisfactory probationary period.

We are open to employing either one full-time PA or two part-time PAs, depending on applicants’ skills, preferences, and availability. If two PAs are appointed, their responsibilities may be divided broadly as follows:
• Household-focused PA – supporting with household organisation, day-to-day tasks, and personal assistance.
• Administration-focused PA – assisting with paperwork, scheduling, correspondence, and other administrative responsibilities.
(Please note that if two PAs are employed, they would generally work separately rather than at the same time).
