PA Vacancy

Personal Assistant – LBNCL

Hours: 13 hours per week to be arranged

Pay rate:  £13.75 per hour

Location: Fenham, Newcastle upon Tyne

 

I am a part time PhD student researching renewable energies. When I have the time and energy I like to be in nature or involved in local community groups and events.

I live with PTSD and experience chronic pain and fatigue. My ability fluctuates and there are times where it is difficult for me to do tasks on my own. I’m a queer person and it is important that anyone I work with is comfortable with this.

I would like support with:
