Description
Live-in care in Beccles suits carers who want to be part of someone's daily life — living with a client in their home and supporting routines around the clock with agreed breaks. You’ll help with personal care, meal preparation, companionship, medication prompts and household tasks that keep people safe and independent at home. Right now, 94 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
These roles attract experienced, compassionate carers from across the country; many travel into Beccles and neighbouring towns such as Bungay, Carlton Colville, Loddon, Lowestoft, Halesworth and Southwold. Working live-in gives you continuity of care and the chance to build real relationships, while still keeping control of your working life. PrimeCarers connects you with families in Beccles and elsewhere in Norfolk, handling the admin so you can focus on care.
As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical pay for roles of this kind sits around £146–£162.50 per day; for hourly care see £19–£21.50 per hour and for live-in day rates see £146–£162.50 per day. PrimeCarers finds clients, issues contracts, handles invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re working. You’re in control of when and where you work, with the platform supporting the paperwork.
This work suits carers with at least a year of professional care experience who want more flexibility than agency life often allows. You’ll need an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. If you already hold relevant training and qualifications, that helps — but your practical experience and reliability are what families value most.
Practical points: live-in shifts are agreed with each client and include set breaks. Carers often travel into Beccles from other areas and stay for placements that can run for weeks or months, depending on what the family needs. You’ll be self-employed throughout, so you manage your taxes and professional insurances beyond the cover PrimeCarers provides while on placement.
Applying takes minutes — create a profile, upload references and DBS, and our verification team usually gets profiles live within days. If you’re thinking about moving from agency work to something steadier, with more choice and clearer pay, live-in care jobs in Beccles could be a great fit.
