Personal Care Assistant (PA) P/T - BS31

£12.10 weekdays. £12.70 weekends. £13.10 bank hol - BRISTOL - BS31

I am a disabled lady having support and care at home from my husband together with a team of Personal Assistants (PAs). These Personal Assistants help with my personal care and support needs as necessary as well as undertaking a range of domestic tasks. I am on direct payment funding from Bath and North East Somerset Council to enable me to employ PAs for my care and support needs.

I am currently looking for someone to join my team to work some regular weekday hours and if possible one or two weekend morning shifts a month. Some weekend evening working is also available. Please get in touch if interested in working all or just some of these shifts.

Responsibilities:

1. Work every Tuesday evening (or possibly one other weekday evening as an alternative day). Evening shifts are usually 3.50hrs in length with a start time of 7pm but some negotiation is possible on this.
2. Jobshare with 4 hours on a Friday morning every other week with the option of working 3.50 hrs on the alternate Friday afternoons.
3. Morning Weekend shifts are available on a rota basis with other PAs (approx one a month) as well as two or more late afternoon/early evening Weekend shifts a month being available.
4. Undertake holiday or sickness cover for other PAs and other weekday or weekend hours may be available at times.

Weekday shifts are paid at £12.10 per hour and Weekend shifts at £12.70 per hour. The Bank Holiday rate is £13.10 per hour.

These hours of work will be contracted with 5.6 weeks paid leave per year based on regular working hours - to include Bank Holidays (as per the Statutory Leave Entitlement).

Requirements:

1. Female candidates are required due to the personal care nature of the work.
2. A non-smoker is required.
3. Covid vaccination status will be requested.
4. Experience is helpful but not essential as training will be given.
