About this client: Snap has had the pleasure of recruiting for Anna s fabulous team of PAs for a number of years. Please read below the details Anna has put together about this position.
I am a sociable 22-year-old young woman, living independently in my flat in Crouch End with a team of PAs working 24-hour shifts across the week. I have cerebral palsy and use a high-tech voice output communication aid. I use a wheelchair when I am out and about, and my car is adapted to take my powerchair. I love hand and machine sewing and cooking. I enjoy going to music festivals, art clubs, swimming, skiing/snowboarding and travel both in the UK and abroad.

Overview of role: I am looking for an additional PA to support me in my own home to enable me to live as independently as possible. My PA will support me with personal care, domestic activities, college and work experience placements, social activities such as meeting up with friends, and going on days out and trips away. My PA will be confident in facilitating my conversation with others and be a strong advocate. My team of PAs work on a rota basis, provided 4 weeks in advance. Start time is 5.00pm and I rarely need any physical support during the overnight sleep-in shift.

Who this job would suit: We will spend a lot of time together, therefore a get up and go attitude to arranging and joining in social activities is required, for example, dancing at parties, gigs and festivals or joining in various physical activities such as swimming and cycling. This is far more important than experience. Voluntary or paid experience supporting young people is welcome. Continuity is key for me, and my team, therefore you must be able to commit to this role for a minimum of 1 year.

What s great about this job: My team of PAs are a great bunch of women; we have a lot of fun and laughs together. This is an employed PA role, and comes with all the usual benefits, including free meals whilst on shift. If you read this advert and feel that this is the ideal position for you, please apply today!
