The job is paid work under the private social services sector collective agreement and suits those looking for full-time, part-time, occasional or gig work. As a personal assistant you decide how much and when you work, so the job suits also when you have another job or studies. You don’t need special training for the assistant role; the right attitude and reliability are the most important qualities for an excellent personal assistant. With Aarre Avustajat you will have continuous support and guidance from your supervisor, and you will never be left alone with your tasks or questions. WHAT IS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE AND WHAT DOES AN ASSISTANT DO? Personal assistance is a service where the personal assistant acts as the client’s hands and feet, performing tasks the client would do themselves if not for a disability or illness. The purpose is to help the client with everyday tasks at home and outside the home. Assistive tasks are often ordinary, everyday chores that we all perform in our own lives. The tasks do not include duties that require a separate qualification such as a practical nurse degree, and anyone can act as an assistant. Examples of tasks include helping the client while shopping, going for walks, eating or cooking, dressing, hobbies or household chores. WHAT KIND OF PERSON IS SUITABLE AS AN ASSISTANT? We have found as an employer of hundreds of personal assistants that the best fits are people with the right attitude toward important caregiving work. The assistant should be reliable, positive, helpful, diligent and people-oriented. You do not need previous relevant work experience, as every new assistant will be trained with a thorough induction at Aarre Akatemia before starting work. Experience or education in care can be beneficial for some clients. WHAT SHIFTS ARE AVAILABLE AND CAN I INFLUENCE THEM? Personal assistance takes place on weekdays and weekends, and shifts are often available from morning to evening. At Aarre Avustajat you can influence how much and when you work and for which client. We aim to match clients’ needs with assistants’ work preferences so that it suits everyone. You will always have a chance to meet a potential new client before starting a client relationship, and if something doesn’t work as you expected, we can find a suitable alternative together. You can work for as many clients as you want if you wish. HOW TO APPLY Our recruitment is ongoing, so please fill out the job application form carefully. Remember to include all municipalities where you can work so we can contact you as soon as we find a suitable client. Submitting the application form does not bind you to anything yet. To be considered as a personal assistant, the applicant must present a criminal background check that is less than six months old to the employer before starting.
