Looking for a part time job a little different from the rest?
A man in his late 20s with Autism is looking for a mentor and guide. He runs a small business, is great to chat to and loves to fish. But he finds some parts of his world really hard to manage without some support and this has gotten him into a bit of trouble.
He needs someone in his corner. Someone who can help him navigate those tricky bits - like talking to his parents, planning to move out of home and building independence on day to day tasks.
To be able to help, you need to be great at building connections, be trustworthy and patient. You don’t need experience, although some knowledge about Autism would be helpful. Mainly you need to be able to get him on side, build trust and have the skills to help him move forward.
Maybe you are looking for a career change? A bit of work alongside your other commitments? Or to know you are making an impact? We would love to chat with you more about it. About 6-10 hours per week – days and times negotiable.

Two days per week in Mt Albert and One day in Glen Innes. (Job can be split/shared).
A young disabled man is looking for someone with a great sense of humour to support him 2 days per week. He is attending Unitec in Mt Albert and needs some help on Thursdays (8.30 - 12pm) and Fridays (8.30 - 2.15pm) during semesters. Saturday work also available from 10 until 2pm but is optional due to the need to fill Thursdays and Fridays as soon as possible.
A kind, caring and understanding person to help during class and when on outings. He uses his own laptop and power chair and needs some help engaging in the classroom. Your patience means you can support him at morning tea, lunch and with some personal cares. You must be fun and generally a lovely person to hang out with. If you are into hip hop, food (pancakes and bananas) and anime (Naruto and dragon ball z) then this could be a great connection.
Your day will consist of meeting him when he arrives at Unitec, spending the day helping him out until he goes home at 2.15pm. Saturdays would be a fun day going to the movies, shopping mall, museum or the park. Car parking fees are covered. Pay is $24 - $30 per hour.
A full licence is needed to work Saturdays but not for Thursdays and Fridays (job can be shared if needed).

We are looking for someone to work 3 days across the week (Mon – Fri) supporting a man in his early 20’s with Down Syndrome. Days will change each week depending on mums shifts so flexibility is important.
You will be a peer support for this young man. He needs someone to help him with his afternoon (3-7pm) routine. As a diabetic he will need support to test himself each day and give his insulin. If you know how to do this then great, if not then mum will teach you. Afternoons start by picking him up from his programme and going home, prepare afternoon tea and then do some fun activities. Things like going to the gym, going for a swim, bowling or a walk.
This easy going young man would love someone fun, chatty to hang out with and have a sense of humour. Pop music, food and sport are some of the things he loves to talk about. Someone who can have a laugh whilst being a great support developing his self-management skills. A car and full licence are essential for this role.

Are you looking for part time evening work in Remuera?
Would you make an amazing mentor and coach?
We are looking for a compassionate, responsible and fun person to support a young woman with a disability. She is exploring life as an adult and needs someone who will help her to grow and develop her skills. Now that she has her own space at home, she is keen to become more independent with tasks like cooking, tidying and getting ready for bed. She needs your help to build her independence and her confidence with these tasks.
She responds well to clear communicators, who look for the best in people and love to celebrate success. This young lady loves to swim, ride horses, and generally make the most of what life has to offer. If you love to dance, laugh and find joy in your daily tasks then this is the job for you. We need a helper Monday - Thursday evenings about 3.30-7pm (8.30pm on a Thursday). We can be flexible on times for the right person. We will also have some weekday hours coming up if that suits you better. You need a full licence and some great references to be the person we are dreaming of.
