INTRODUCTION
I am 30 years old, live in Antwerp and have been blind since birth. I studied Translation English-Spanish and thoroughly enjoy meeting English speakers from all over the world. My personal interests include films, music, international current affairs and all things English.
I am looking for one more part-time fluent English-speaking personal assistant to help me go about my daily life. The activities I need help with might include attending concerts and social events, doing shopping, going for walks, going to the cinema, reading things, preparing meals etc. I can currently only offer very part-time work (a few hours a month), but this might change in the future.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Requirements
- No qualifications, references or experience needed, your eyes just need to work.
- You must have an idiomatic level of English, ideally C2. No other languages are required.
- You should be a good communicator and always feel comfortable asking questions and telling me if something is not working for you.
- Being able to drive me in your own car would be a plus, but I am equally happy to take public transport with you.
Wage
To be agreed.
Paperwork
I will take care of the administrative side for you through a platform called Exxtra. The successful candidate will need to provide me with their name, email, address, bank account number (IBAN) and 'rijksregisternummer'. This information will, of course, be kept private. Exxtra will pay you at the end of the month and collect 10,7% in tax. We will also both be insured during your working hours.
Working hours
Currently a few hours a month. I am not expecting anyone to clear their schedule for me in advance. If you are available at a certain time, great. If not, I will find someone else for that day and come back to you next time.
Benefits
If you are receiving benefits due to illness or disability, you will most likely not be entitled to them on the days you work for me.
If you are interested, please e-mail me and tell me a little bit about yourself. If you have any questions, do feel free to ask.
