About The Employer
I have MS and am looking for someone who is patient, respectful and comfortable providing practical support while encouraging my independence. In my spare time, I enjoy music — especially jazz and a little Amy Winehouse — as well as reading and keeping up with current affairs. I am looking for a friendly, reliable and caring Personal Assistant to support me. The role would include:
- Preparing my evening meal and assisting me with feeding when required.
- Helping with general household chores and keeping things tidy.
- Supporting me with my medication and vitamins.
- Experience using a hoist would be desirable, but it is not essential, as training can be provided.
- Providing friendly companionship and conversation.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
If you are caring, dependable and would enjoy making a positive difference to someone's evening, I would love to hear from you.
