Personal Care Assistant

£13.9 per hour
Temporary

Personal Assistant (Maternity Cover)

Location: Saughall Massie
Hours: 20–30 hours per week on a rota basis (shift pattern to be discussed)
Pay: £13.90 per hour
Contract: Fixed-term (Maternity Cover)

  • We’re looking for a reliable and friendly Personal Assistant to join our small team on a maternity cover basis. This role is about providing day-to-day support in a home environment, helping things run smoothly and ensuring support is provided consistently and reliably.

  • You’ll be working closely with us, so being approachable, respectful, and easy to get along with matters just as much as experience. It’s not a rushed environment, but it does need someone who is organised, calm, and willing to take responsibility.

  • Because this is a small support team, reliability and good communication are particularly important.


Contract details:

  • This is a temporary role for up to 12 months, expected to start around August 2026. The contract will end when the current post holder returns from maternity leave, with a minimum of 4 weeks’ notice provided.

  • There may be an opportunity for bank (as and when required) hours after the maternity cover ends, but this is not guaranteed.


What the role involves:

  • Providing personal care and practical daily support
  • Supporting with routines, appointments, and day-to-day organisation
  • Assisting with outings and activities where required
  • Light household tasks to help keep things running smoothly
  • Working as part of a small, consistent team

What we’re looking for:

  • Someone reliable, dependable, and able to take responsibility for their role
  • A calm and patient approach to day-to-day situations
  • Clear and straightforward communication
  • Willingness to learn and follow routines properly
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a team
  • Understanding, patience, and a respectful approach when supporting long-term health conditions and mental health needs
  • Comfortable working in a home with cats (we have four)
  • Some flexibility around shifts and occasional outings is helpful
  • Previous care experience is helpful but not essential. What matters most is attitude, reliability, and being willing to learn how things are done properly.

  • Training will be provided, and we aim to offer a supportive environment where expectations are clear and where you can settle into the role confidently.


A DBS check is required for this role.

Important:

  • Due to the nature of the role, which includes personal care, this position is open to female applicants only. This is a genuine occupational requirement in line with the Equality Act 2010.
