Description
We’re looking for experienced care assistants in Arbroath to provide daytime hourly home visits. Typical visits involve personal care (washing, dressing, continence support), meal preparation, medication prompts and running errands — often combined with friendly companionship and practical help so clients can stay independent at home. Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits carers who want to stay hands-on rather than move into management, and who value control over when and where they work. If you live in Arbroath or elsewhere in Angus and travel to nearby towns such as Carnoustie, Letham, Monifieth, Montrose, Brechin and Forfar, you’ll find families who need reliable hourly support during daytime hours.
Pay and flexibility are at the heart of the PrimeCarers model. Carers on the platform are self-employed: you set your own rate and choose which clients, hours and service area suit you. Typical pay sits around £19.50–£20 per hour, and you can adjust your rate as you gain experience and build regulars. PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments — and insurance is included while you work on assignments arranged through the platform.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We check qualifications and references to protect families and carers alike, so please have details ready when you apply.
Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload a DBS or book one through our service, add your references and set the areas and hours you’ll cover. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and from there you can review client requests and accept only the visits you want. You remain self-employed and in control — PrimeCarers simply makes the admin and client-finding easier so you can focus on care in Arbroath and across Angus.
If you’re ready to move away from agency rota rules and take charge of your diary while still getting client leads and admin support, join PrimeCarers. Create your profile now and be ready to offer compassionate, dependable daytime hourly care to families in Arbroath and surrounding towns.
