Companion and Practical Support Assistant

Vicky's Practical Support is looking for a friendly and reliable person to join our growing team.

We provide companionship, practical support and body doubling services to adults who would benefit from an extra pair of hands, a listening ear, or support to get things done.

This is not a personal care role. Instead, you'll be helping people maintain independence, confidence and connection through practical day\-to\-day support.

What the role involves

• Companionship and conversation


• Accompanying clients on outings


• Attending appointments


• Shopping and errands


• Light household tasks


• Encouragement and motivation


• Supporting clients to achieve personal goals


• Body doubling and practical assistance with everyday activities

Every client is different, making this a varied and rewarding role where no two days are quite the same.

Hours

Current hours are 7\.5 hours per week across the week including Saturday and Sunday.

This is a zero hours contract. Additional hours are expected to become available as the business grows, and there may be opportunities to support additional clients in the future.

About You

You will be:

• Friendly and approachable


• Reliable and punctual


• A good communicator


• Comfortable working independently


• Patient, supportive and encouraging


• Able to build positive relationships with clients

A driving licence and access to a vehicle are preferred.

A current enhanced DBS certificate registered with the update service would be an advantage.

Why Join Vicky's Practical Support?

We are a small, local business in the early stages of growth, and we're looking for someone who would like to grow with us. As new clients join the service, there may be opportunities for additional hours and responsibilities.

We're looking for someone who enjoys building genuine relationships, takes pride in their work, and wants to be part of a supportive team where their ideas and input are valued.

If you're excited by the idea of helping a young business develop while making a real difference to people's lives, we'd love to hear from you.
