Work is self-employed and highly flexible: you set your own rate, choose clients, hours and your service area. Many carers in and around Anstruther set rates within £15–£25 per hour depending on experience and the support required. PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. You can cover Anstruther and nearby towns such as Pittenweem, St Monans, Crail, St Andrews, North Berwick and Leven if you wish.

This type of support suits people who prefer steady, relationship-based care rather than personal care tasks. Typical companion duties include conversation, reading or board games, accompanying someone to a short walk or local café, encouraging hobbies, gentle prompts with daily tasks, and light tidying or making drinks. Outings might be local trips in and around Fife or just sitting together watching a favourite programme.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t create a fixed rota for you — you choose the clients and hours that fit your life. Many carers leave agency work because they want that control and a closer working relationship with the people they support in Anstruther.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload your documents and references, and PrimeCarers completes verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. While you wait we offer guidance on describing your experience and on practical things like travel and paperwork. You remain self-employed throughout and are free to accept or decline any request that doesn’t suit you.
