About The Employer
Who wants to come and work with this legend?!? Stephen or DJ Scootey as he’s affectionately known. This literally is the best job. Imagine you hang out with the coolest dude going!! Experiencing fun days. The only challenge you may face is the need to appease his desire for you to ride the scariest rollercoaster going and not be a sore loser when he thrashes you at bowling….also be expected to become a Nottingham Forest fan if only for 90 minutes at a time. You would be joining a team of wonderful staff who all bring different elements to Stephen’s life. The one thing they do have in common is their amazing work ethic and ensuring Stephen is well cared for and given opportunity to get involved in all he wishes. We work as a team to ensure DJ Scootey experiences life to the fullest. I already have a team of PAs in place and i require 1 new PA to join my existing carers. These working hours and nights will fit in with current PAs so there is flexibility in the days/nights you would work and there is also additional hours/night needed for leave cover on top.
