Description
Looking for live-in care work in Brierley Hill and the wider West Midlands? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in need of round-the-clock support. Live-in roles mean you’ll be living with a client in their own home, helping with daily routines, personal care and companionship while taking agreed breaks. Right now, 113 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in placements suit carers who want deeper relationships with the people they support and who can commit to being on-site for agreed periods. Many carers travel from across the country for these roles; others already live locally and work in Brierley Hill, Netherton or nearby towns. Being self-employed on PrimeCarers means you choose who you work with, where you operate and the hours you accept.
Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates, and live-in jobs typically fall within £145–£160 per day per day, with supported hourly work often within £18.50–£20 per hour for daytime care. Overall market ranges for similar roles are around £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working with a family.
What we look for: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll need to be comfortable living in someone’s home, flexible about routines, and clear on boundaries and agreed breaks. We’re a great fit for carers who are ready to move away from agency shifts, want more control over their work and value building long-term relationships in Brierley Hill and surrounding areas in the West Midlands.
Applying is quick: profiles take minutes to set up, and once verified they typically go live within days. PrimeCarers finds families in Brierley Hill, and towns such as Netherton, Cradley Heath, Lye, Stourbridge, Dudley and Gornal, so you can pick roles that suit your location and lifestyle.
How it works in practice: you browse client requests, message the family directly through our platform, agree terms and start when you’re both ready.
