Life Auxiliary Personal Assistant (LA PA)

Full-Time | 40 hours/week
Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday | 9 AM–7 PM
Work Setting: In-person | Local driving + occasional travel
Benefits: Health Insurance + Paid Time Off

About the Role

We are seeking a dependable, organized, and resourceful Life Auxiliary Personal Assistant (LA PA) to support a private client with a physical disability.

This unique position combines personal assistance, household management, administration, staff coordination, and lifestyle/logistics support . The LA PA helps manage the systems and day-to-day responsibilities that allow the client to live an active, organized, and independent life.

This is not a nursing position and does not require medical training or certification. Healthcare or disability-related experience is welcome but not required. The client has an established professional nursing team, and role-specific training is provided.

Key Responsibilities

Household & Administrative

  • Coordinate groceries, meal preparation, dietary guidelines, and refrigerator/pantry inventory.
  • Manage mail, bills, utilities, monthly statements, receipts, and outstanding expenses.
  • Coordinate home maintenance, cleaners, contractors, repairs, and household services.
  • Assist with insurance matters, claims, vehicle maintenance, purchases, and household needs.
  • Research products, services, vendors, and solutions as needed.

Scheduling & Staff Coordination

  • Maintain the client's master calendar, appointments, and activities.
  • Coordinate Personal Assistant/companion schedules and arrange coverage when needed.
  • Assist with staff onboarding, timesheets, and routine HR administration.
  • Coordinate schedules and logistics with the client's nursing team.
  • Assist with household and nursing inventory.
  • Create and coordinate staffing schedules for travel and extended stays.

Personal & Lifestyle Support

  • Drive and accompany the client to regularly scheduled therapy, appointments, activities, and social outings.
  • Schedule appointments and manage related communication and follow-up.
  • Help plan social outings, experiences, and activities that support the client's goals and quality of life.
  • Assist with social media and creative projects, including filming, basic editing, content organization, and research.
  • Serve as a liaison with financial representatives, banks, businesses, vendors, and other third parties.
  • Assist with texts, emails, phone calls, forms, online accounts, and personal communications.
  • Plan and execute travel, including transportation, accessible accommodations, equipment, staffing, reservations, schedules, and activities.
  • Provide trained, non-clinical assistance related to the client's disability, equipment, routines, and safety.
  • Research problems, coordinate solutions, and follow through until tasks are completed.

Schedule & Travel

The regular schedule is Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9 AM–7 PM . Tuesday and weekends are normally off.

Occasional flexibility is required for appointments, events, holidays, or other needs. When possible, the schedule will be adjusted within the workweek to maintain approximately 40 hours.

Occasional overnight and extended travel is part of the position and may require evenings, weekends, or hours outside of the normal schedule.

Benefits

  • Health Insurance
  • Paid Time Off (PTO)
  • Consistent four-day workweek
  • Structured onboarding and on-the-job training
  • Occasional travel opportunities

Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who is:

  • High Energy, dependable, punctual, organized, and detail-oriented.
  • Resourceful and comfortable solving problems independently.
  • Able to take ownership of responsibilities and follow through.
  • Comfortable driving and working in a private-home environment.
  • Professional when communicating with staff, businesses, healthcare offices, and financial representatives.
  • Tech-savvy and comfortable learning new systems and tools.
  • Flexible when schedules or priorities change.
  • Discreet with confidential personal, household, medical, staffing, and financial information.
  • Willing and able to travel occasionally.

Qualifications

  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills.
  • Comfortable with computers, smartphones, email, calendars, spreadsheets, and common productivity tools.
  • Availability for the regular four-day schedule.
  • Ability to travel locally and occasionally overnight.
  • Able to pass a background check 

Previous experience in personal assistance, administration, household management, hospitality, logistics, healthcare, or disability services is helpful but not required.

Above all, we're looking for someone who takes initiative, learns quickly, and figures things out. You don't need to know everything on day one—but you should be willing to find the answer and follow through.
