Overview
A mature, active principal in his mid-nineties is seeking a live-in companion who can keep up with him! He walks/hikes up to 6 miles daily, reads voraciously, is comfortable with new technology, and can converse intelligently on various subjects. The principal is active in a charity he supports research for and travels frequently. The primary residence would be in the Princeton, NJ, area, with travel to CA to visit family. The position is a full-time, year-round schedule working Monday through Friday, usually 8am-6pm. There needs to be flexibility for extended days/hours in the schedule when the principal goes into the city for dinners/cultural events. There may be occasions when seven-day coverage is necessary, but this should be infrequent. The companion may have extensive periods where they are on call but not working (still paid). This is a live-in role (open to local non-live-in candidates.)Responsibilities
TRAVEL:
The principal lives in New Jersey but travels and spends extended time in California. The companion should be comfortable traveling and should accommodate this. While in CA, arrangements would be made to fly the companion back to the East Coast, perhaps with a two-week on/off schedule. Both in NJ and CA, there would be a separate bedroom and private living space.
