Personal Assistant for Active 8-Year-Old in Jönköping

We are now looking for a wonderful person with a kind heart who wants to work as a personal assistant to our client, an active 8-year-old boy living in Jönköping with his family. A fun and rewarding job for you who enjoy helping another person in their daily life.

About the Position

As a personal assistant, your workplace will be wherever the boy is, and you will spend your time both indoors and outdoors. The boy enjoys listening to music, exploring YouTube, reading books, playing games, and being outside to play, among other activities. He communicates using an eye-controlled computer that is always with him. You will also need to assist with various activities such as bowling or swimming. You will be a support in the boy's daily life and will be with him in all situations.

Requirements

We are looking for someone who enjoys working with people and who wants to give that little extra. We prefer that you are flexible and can easily adapt to different situations. You can read others and have an easy time blending in while working in a family setting. You should be able to sense when to take your own initiative and when to step back. You should be technically inclined and have no difficulties handling games, apps, and other technology, as this is a big part of the boy's daily life. Previous experience in personal assistance or other social work is an advantage. The most important factor will be your personal qualities and the chemistry between you, the boy, and his family.

Good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written, is required. To be considered for the position, you must be smoke-free and cannot be allergic to pets or have a shellfish allergy, as there is a cat in the home and you will be swimming together with the client. We also prefer that you have good physical fitness, as transfers may occur several times during a work shift.

What We Offer

We offer an exciting and varied job with good employment conditions, where you will make a difference for someone else every day. Developing our staff's skills is part of ensuring the quality of personal assistance, which is why we offer several training sessions each year to our employees. We want you to feel really good and hope for a lasting collaboration with you.

• Part-time position. Mainly on Saturdays, Sundays, and evenings
• We are also looking for on-call staff who can work as needed
• Start date by agreement
• You will receive an introduction and the opportunity to shadow an assistant
