Are you caring, fun-loving, and ready to make a positive impact in someone’s life?
We’re looking for a warm-hearted Personal Assistant to support a vibrant 18-year-old woman with ADHD, learning disabilities, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. She’s full of energy, loves the outdoors, and enjoys great conversation — and she’s looking for the right person to help her explore new activities and be part of her journey.

About the Role

As her Personal Assistant, you'll be:

• Helping her access the local community
• Joining her on walks, picnics, or to the cinema
• Supporting outings like swimming, shopping, and meals out
• Encouraging new hobbies and fun, engaging activities
• Offering companionship and understanding in quieter moments too

She’s happy to take the bus, though a driver is preferred to help avoid busy, overwhelming situations.

This role is perfect for someone with a sense of humour, a caring attitude, and a flexible, reliable approach to work. If you’re creative and enthusiastic about making everyday moments enjoyable, we’d love to hear from you!

What You’ll Need

• A kind, friendly, and reliable nature
• Experience in care is a bonus – but not essential
• PVG Membership (or willingness to apply)
• Willingness to learn – hoist training can be provided

To apply, send your CV quoting the job reference above to recruitment@sdsoptionsfife.org.uk or by post to SDS Options (Fife), DPHS Fife, Caledonia House, Pentland Park, Saltire Centre, Glenrothes, Fife, KY6 2AQ
