Summary
Do you love the outdoors? Enjoy staying active? Looking for a meaningful way to make a difference during the school holidays?
We’re looking for a friendly and reliable Personal Assistant to support a happy and energetic 9-year-old boy who lives life to the fullest! He enjoys being outside—exploring woods, walking on the beach, going swimming, and having fun at the park.
About the Role:
• Support the client on fun outings during school holidays
• Suggest and plan enjoyable activities
• Understand and adapt to non-verbal communication styles
• Provide personal care when needed
• Ensure safety at all times
• Work flexibly with days and hours discussed at interview
Our client has autism and global developmental delay. He’s also non-verbal, so a patient and observant approach will go a long way. He thrives with someone who brings good energy, a sense of humour, and a willingness to get stuck in.
You’ll Need:
• A caring attitude and positive outlook
• Good fitness and awareness (due to flight risk)
• A valid driving licence
• PVG membership (or willingness to apply)
To apply please email your CV quoting job ref SDS/JA/322167 to recruitment@sdsoptionsfife.org.uk or post to SDS Options (Fife), DPHS Fife, Caledonia House, Pentland Park, Saltire Centre, Glenrothes, KY6 2AQ
