I am looking for a personal care assistant, for self-employed position. I am a spinally injured wheelchair user based in the Glasgow, Scotland. I require a person that can work 10am-6pm for the day shift and 11pm-9am for the sleepover, but this can vary slightly. Various shifts available.

The hourly rate is £12.50 per hour day rate, and £109.80 for the sleepover shift.

What is essential is that you are highly reliable and that you can work to a high standard and, sometimes, tight deadlines. The ability to cover holiday and sick days of colleagues is essential.

Must like cats as I have 3 lovely boys who are very important to me.

There is no tight structure to how a day may be. Everything depends on how I may feel on the day. I can have days where I am unwell and in a lot of pain, and I can have days where I'm full of energy and want to get everything done.

Housework is important to me as I like my house to be tidy and organised.

Assisting with my cats helping with cat litter and playing with them is also important.

I like to have a laugh and don't get bored easily.

Please apply with C.V. and covering letter to [email protected]
