About the Job

Our client is looking for someone who can support them at University based in Chester. The most important thing for our client is being able to have an open and honest relationship with her PAs.

About our Client

Our client is seeking a companionship within her PA and aspires to share similar interests such as watching films (specifically Harry Potter), stand up comedy and RPG/puzzle games. Furthermore, our client participated in wheelchair dancing for 11 years and is potentially looking to get back into it again, meaning a positive and open- minded PA is required. The client considers herself introverted and henceforth likes to stay in and read books in her own space or watch Youtube rather than go out, so having a PA to respect her space is highly valuable. She does also have an 8 year old labrador service dog.

As written by her …

The qualities that I would like my PA to have are being able to have a laugh and not take things too seriously (I really like a lot of stand-up comedy and improv comedy.) Patience, as I can be quite slow at doing things unfortunately.

To be a PA of mine you do not need an interest in chemistry. However, I may need you to help me scribe some of my homework assignments…therefore you need to have good English language skills and basic maths skills will most likely be useful as well.

I love to read sci-fi and fantasy books and I play a lot of video games and board games. I also play and run Games of Dungeons and Dragons. In my free time I like a lot of different types of music. I like to go out to the Theatre and cafes.”
