About this role
Personal Assistant in Central Gothenburg – 70%
I am looking for a personal assistant who wants to be a part of my daily life – someone who thrives in an active environment, appreciates exercise, and believes that a job should feel meaningful.
Who am I?
I live in central Gothenburg with my family and work at Move & Walk, a daily activity center where I truly enjoy my time. In my free time, I play boccia, engage in activities with friends and family, and like to fill my days with things that energize me. I have a CP disability and need support in both training and practical aspects of life, and that’s where you come in.
Who are you?
You are a stable and warm person who enjoys collaboration and has a knack for reading situations. Since I communicate using a letter board, you need to have very good Swedish – you will be the one who helps me make my voice heard.
I often train, both at home and at Move & Walk. If you enjoy being active, can participate in floor exercises, and can be a supportive sounding board (especially on days when motivation is low), you will thrive here. The role also includes personal hygiene, transfers, operating a wheelchair, and other tasks that make daily life smoother.
The Practicalities
Work shifts:
• 07:30–17:45
• 17:30–08:00 (sleeping on-call for 6 hours)
Smoke-free workplace.
A driver's license is a plus.
Experience with lifts or personal assistance is advantageous – but the most important thing is that we connect.
We start with hourly employment. If we enjoy working together, there is an opportunity for a fixed-term contract as long as the assistance assignment lasts at 70%, and you may also receive extra shifts when needed.
Do you feel that we would work well together? Get in touch, and we can discuss further.
GIL has coordinated personal assistance since 1989. The cooperative has roots in the Independent Living movement, which is based on the principle that individuals with disabilities know best how they want to live their lives. Typically, the person receiving assistance is the closest supervisor of the assistants, or a person with in-depth knowledge of the individual is appointed.
As a personal assistant, you support a person with a disability in living the life they want to lead. To attract and retain competent and satisfied assistants, we invest in training and events. We believe that development and meeting others lead to motivated and secure assistants who enjoy and find it rewarding to work with us.
