Personal Assistant (PA) Wanted – Join Arthur’s Adventure!
Location: South West York
Hours: To be agreed with the family (starting with 1–2 hours a week, with potential to grow)
Rate of Pay: £12.60 per hour
We’re looking for a kind, patient and understanding Personal Assistant to support Arthur, a creative and witty 14-year-old living in South West York.
Arthur is Autistic with PDA characteristics and has ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder), which means his food choices are limited. He sometimes finds walking difficult over longer distances, so he uses a wheelchair when out and about.
He currently learns through a mix of online education with a specialist provider and one weekly school session.
About the Role
At first, your role will be about hanging out with Arthur at home, getting to know him, and building a trusting relationship. Once you’ve got to know each other, your adventures may expand to short trips out.
Arthur’s world is filled with imagination, strategy, and creativity. Some of his favourite things include:
Gaming (Nintendo Switch, PC, Xbox – he’s pretty versatile!)
Dungeons & Dragons and other Tabletop RPGs
Yu-Gi-Oh cards
✏️ Drawing and creating new characters for games
As your bond grows, you might also support Arthur with:
Little outings like a café trip or short walk
Joining him at his weekly RPG sessions
Exploring new activities at his pace
About You
We’re looking for someone who is:
Patient, friendly, and reliable
Calm and adaptable, with respect for Arthur’s autonomy – he likes to be treated as the young adult he is
Interested in (or open to learning about) gaming, D&D, and all things RPG
Comfortable supporting a young person with neurodivergent needs
Experience with Autism, PDA profiles, or ARFID is a bonus, but what really matters is your personality, empathy, and willingness to learn.
✨ If you’re someone who can meet Arthur on his level, share his passions, and help open up the world at his pace, we’d love to hear from you!
For more information, please see the Job Description
This vacancy will close as soon as a suitable candidate is appointed.
At the time of starting their employment, the successful candidate must have permission to work in the U.K.
