    Live-in Personal Care Assistant for a Business and Management Graduate Are you a recent graduate and not sure what to do next? Or are you a carer or someone with a passion for making a positive impact in others’ lives? We are currently recruiting on behalf of our client, a recent Business and Management graduate from the University of Kent in Canterbury. They are seeking a like-minded individual to join their care team and assist with daily living tasks while they decide on their next steps. Location: Surbiton, London (home-based) Shift Pattern: Live-In - 7 days on / 7 days off - alternating day and waking night shifts (with split shifts and additional overtime hours as required) Start Date: ASAP Pay & Benefits • Pay: £246.00 per day (equivalent to £1,722.00 per week worked, plus any agreed overtime), • Holidays: 5.6 weeks (pro rata) Bespoke training on the client’s particular requirements will be provided. About Our Client Our client is a Business and Management graduate from Kent University. They live with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and use an electric powered wheelchair for mobility. Our client has specific needs and will happily provide instructions for daily tasks. They also maintain a restricted diet due to allergies. Some of their interests include football, Star Wars, and stand-up comedy. As written by our client… "Before university, I spent 5 years at a special residential school with a small peer group, so I was really looking forward to being as independent as possible and meeting new people. I am really proud to have lived independently since September 2023, but my first year was socially quite challenging due to fatigue and anxiety." "I’m a huge fan of the Star Wars franchise and also like Marvel and DC. I’m also a lover of sports - mainly football but also basketball, rugby, tennis, etc." "I am looking for someone who can be flexible. One of the things I value most from having my care team is the ability to be spontaneous. I may decide with relatively short notice to spend time at home in Surbiton, or elsewhere, and I would need you to travel with me." "You will be given plenty of training and I will always let you know if I want something done differently. It will take time for you to become familiar with everything, so don’t worry about making mistakes."
