We are looking for a warm, patient and reliable Personal Assistant to support a 22-year-old autistic young adult with learning difficulties. The role is based in Wadhurst, East Sussex, close to Tunbridge Wells.
He is gentle, affectionate and passionate about music, gaming, and anything mechanical—from trains and tractors to cars and quad bikes. He enjoys hands-on tasks such as fixing things, woodwork and practical outdoor activities, and he has an incredible memory for routes and directions.
Communication can at times be challenging due to limited vocabulary and confidence, and he may repeat words or mumble when frustrated, but he is not violent and simply withdraws when overwhelmed. Epilepsy is managed with medication.
He attends a structured farm-based programme twice a week, where he enjoys woodwork, land management and mechanical tasks. At home, he is working on building independence with everyday skills such as choosing appropriate clothing, cooking, cleaning and time management. He uses a smartwatch to organise his day and appreciates gentle support when routines change. He also loves helping with family dogs and is open to finding a physical activity to build fitness.
We are seeking someone calm, positive and encouraging who can help develop his confidence, independence and enjoyment in daily life.
If you’re compassionate, dependable and genuinely interested in supporting an autistic young adult, we’d love to hear from you.
Duties include:
- Other relevant duties as required
- Companionship
Candidate qualities:
- Respectful of the employer's privacy and confidentiality
- Reliable with good timekeeping
- Able to both follow instructions and work on own initiative
- Fit and healthy to undertake the required duties
- Patient and possess excellent interpersonal skills
- Honest and cheerful
- Creative
- Able to speak and read English to a reasonable standard
- Must be comfortable with pets
- Able to always work to high standards of health & safety
Notes:
All applicants must have the right to work in the UK and be willing to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service check if required.
If you are successful in your application for this position, you will be either engaged directly or employed by the individual employer and not by Independent Lives. The role may be offered on an employed or self-employed basis, depending on the suitability and agreement with the employer. If the role is employed, you will be entitled to holiday pay and issued an employment contract.
Please note: If you do not hear back within three weeks of applying, unfortunately your application has not been successful on this occasion.
