Description
Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed care assistant providing hourly home care in Clerkhill. You’ll be doing daytime visits in people’s own homes, offering personal care, support with meals, help with medication and short errands. This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Clerkhill and the surrounding area, not one specific role. Typical rates are £15–£25 per hour. New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.
These roles suit experienced carers who want more control than agency work. In Clerkhill you can pick who you work for, when you visit and how far you’ll travel within Aberdeenshire. Visits are usually focused on personal care, companionship, keeping clients comfortable at home and practical tasks like shopping or collecting prescriptions. The work is hands-on and rewarding; you’ll be trusted to support people with dignity and consistency.
PrimeCarers is built for self-employed carers. You set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and manage your diary. We find you clients and take care of contracts, invoicing and payments. While you’re working with a booked client through PrimeCarers, insurance is included. That means you can focus on care, not paperwork.
Who this is for:
- At least one year of professional care experience.
- An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed.
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
Applying takes minutes. Create your profile, upload documents and references, and complete any verification steps. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can start choosing local clients.
