Personal Assistant / Carer Required female – 5 Hours per Week (Flexible)
I am looking to employ a reliable and supportive Personal Assistant / Carer to provide 5 hours per week, with flexibility to meet the employer’s needs.
The hours will be mainly afternoons and early evenings, and flexibility is essential as support is required around appointments and daily living tasks. There is also the possibility of additional hours being available to cover when the other Personal Assistant is on leave.

Duties will include:
Support with attending appointments
Support with shopping
Light cleaning and household tasks
Food preparation
General day‑to‑day support as needed

Essential requirements:
Must be flexible with hours to meet the employer’s needs
Must be a driver with access to a vehicle (essential for appointments and shopping)
Must be comfortable and confident around one dog
Reliable, patient, and supportive
Able to work independently and follow guidance

Experience in a caring or support role is desirable but not essential, as a caring attitude and willingness to support are most important.

This role would suit someone looking for part‑time, flexible work, with the opportunity for occasional extra hours.

This post is exempt under the Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9, Paragraphs 1–4.

The post is subject to relevant checks.
Post subject to disclosure and barring service (DBS) check.
