Description

Looking for live-in care work in Alloa and the surrounding area? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families who need overnight, round-the-clock support while you live in the client’s home. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities — not one-off placements — and many carers travel into Alloa from across the UK for live-in roles. Right now, 12 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in care with PrimeCarers means supporting daily routines, personal care, mealtimes and companionship, with agreed breaks built into each arrangement. You’ll be based in a client’s home, helping maintain independence and a familiar life for the person you support. Carers come from both nearby towns and further afield to take on placements in Alloa, Clackmannanshire and areas such as Clackmannan, Dunmore, Tullibody, Alva, Airth and Tillicoultry.

This work suits experienced carers who want more control than agency life offers. You choose your clients, your hours and your service area. As a self-employed care assistant you set your own rates and can expect roles within the typical range of £140–£160 per day depending on the needs of the client and the agreed working pattern.

PrimeCarers handles the practical bits so you can focus on care: we find clients, manage contracts, take care of invoicing and payments and provide insurance while you work. That means less admin and clearer, timely pay arrangements while you remain in control of how you work.

  • Who we’re looking for: at least 1 year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references.
  • What live-in work involves: living with the client in their home, supporting daily routines and being available around the clock with agreed breaks and rest periods.
  • Flexibility: many carers take short- or long-term placements and can travel from elsewhere in the UK to work in Alloa.

Applying takes minutes — create a profile, upload your documents and we’ll verify you. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you’re ready to escape agency rota pressures, keep control over rates and pick the kind of live-in work you want in Alloa and across Clackmannanshire, we make it straightforward to get started.
