Summary
Love late nights and a good laugh? Mike does too! He's looking for a fellow night owl to support him and share the fun along the way
Contract: 12hrs
Essential Requirements - Must be comfortable with lone working, being awake all night, and supporting with personal hygiene.
As a Night Team Member, you'll be supporting Mike with his evening and overnight routine, offering positive encouragement and helping him make healthy choices. The role includes some basic cooking, light household tasks, and supporting with personal hygiene - always with a focus on encouraging Mike's involvement and independence.
Mike has a great sense of humour and enjoys chatting and having a laugh with his team. His hobbies include gaming, music of all kinds, treasure hunting, gardening, metal detecting, and watching 80's cartoons and films.
