Companionship Carer Jobs in Aston

Companionship care in Aston is about time, conversation and safety — helping people stay social, get out and keep doing the things they enjoy. Typical duties include friendly visits, chatting over tea, short outings, helping with hobbies and light household tasks to give reassurance and company. Right now, 27 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This kind of work suits people who love conversation, have patience and can plan simple social activities — whether that’s a walk to a local café, a trip to a community group or an afternoon crafting at home. Many carers on PrimeCarers prefer companionship roles because they focus on relationship-based support rather than clinical tasks. You set your own rates and working patterns, with many carers charging in the range £18.50–£20 per hour depending on experience and the visit length.

You’ll be fully self-employed on PrimeCarers. That means you choose your clients, hours and service area — whether you want to work across Aston or visit neighbours in Duddeston, New Town Row, Gosta Green, Gun Quarter, Birmingham and Ashted. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working. Typical pay guidance is available on the platform as £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates, but you decide what to charge for each job.

To join you’ll need at least 1 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 check documents and references quickly so your profile can go live within days of verification. Applying takes minutes from a phone or laptop — create a profile, upload checks and references, and you’re on the platform.

PrimeCarers suits carers who are ready to leave agency rota constraints and take more control over their time and clients, while still having the back-office support of a platform.
