Explore our roles
Bank roles
Our bank PAs step in during critical moments, such as hospital discharge or sudden changes for people at home. Bank work is flexible and meaningful; it’s about being there when timely support makes the difference.
This could include:
- Helping someone stabilise at home
- Sitting/companionship so carers can take a break
- Shopping, cleaning, or pet care
- Helping with admin or attending appointments
Visits can range from one hour to multiple hours, even overnight. It’s a great way to top up income on your terms. No pressure, no obligation to say yes.
Permanent Roles
Permanent PAs support people with long-term health conditions or disabilities to live independently.
This might include:
- Supporting education, work or hobbies
- Helping run a household
- Providing personal care (e.g. bathing, toileting)
You help shape the support based on each person’s needs, interests, and preferences. Roles range from a few hours a week to full-time, so there’s something for everyone.
Bank and permanent roles
Choosing both means you get the best of both worlds. You’ll have the stability of a permanent role while keeping the freedom to pick up extra bank shifts when it suits you.
This could look like:
- A regular role with someone you support every week
- Extra hours to support someone’s hospital discharge, crisis, or holiday cover
- Building strong relationships while still keeping variety in your work
It’s a great balance, reliable income with the flexibility to do more when you want to.
