About this role

Rate of pay £15 per hour.

I am looking for Personal Assistants who are friendly and approachable with a good sense of humour. They must be able to give me the space I need to continue developing but also guide me. Someone who is lively and fun, who loves music, singing and reading stories to others. A reliable, punctual and honest individual.

An important part of the job is supporting me with my diet. Full training in this will be provided.

After you have spent significant time getting to know me, you will have the option to learn about my enzyme therapy. Please note that you will already be able to calculate percentages confidently using a calculator to be able to carry out the enzyme therapy.

Working hours are 9-hour shifts. There is the possibility of extra hours some evenings and cover for respite including overnight. It would also be useful if you could cover shifts of staff on annual leave. I live on the 44 bus route (EH8).

Applications from people looking to do only one nine-hour shift per week welcome.

Please state in your application how many shifts you are hoping to do.

For more information please download a job description from the LCiL website.

Please apply as soon as possible by emailing your CV and covering letter to pajobs@lothiancil.org.uk and quoting reference OB WN.
