How our Service Works

PA Search helps match PA’s with Employers (who are in receipt of direct payments) through our portal .

STEP 1

Direct Payments with Wigan Council

Direct payments are funds given by your local authority, allowing you to arrange and manage your own care and support services.

STEP 2

Employer Register

Once Direct Payments has been set-up, an employer can then register on our website.

STEP 3

Await Approval

Once registration is complete a member of our team will approve your account so you can start listing job roles.

STEP 4

PA Register

Once a job has been listed a PA (Personal Assistant) can register on our website and start applying for roles. Jobs expire in 21 days from publication date (you can relist the job if you haven’t found a suitable PA. You can do this in your employer dashboard.).

STEP 5

Communicate

Once a PA has applied for a role, their information will be sent to the employer to review. Either Embrace or the Employer will be in touch to arrange an interview if the employer feels that you could be suitable for the role.

STEP 6

Employment

PA’s will be required to complete a DBS check and a start date will be arranged by the employer.

How we help

During this whole process our PA Recruitment Service will guide both employers and personal assistants through the different steps. We help with matching people together, updating the progress of applications and supporting with the interview process.
