Companionship Carer Jobs in Cofton Common

PrimeCarers connects self‑employed companionship carers with families in Cofton Common and across the West Midlands. If you enjoy conversation, trips out and light help around the home, this is work that fits around your life — you pick which clients, when you work and how far you'll travel. These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities across Cofton Common, not a single fixed role. Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Companionship care here means time and presence: sitting down for a cuppa and a chat, accompanying someone to an appointment or a local café, supporting hobbies and interests, or doing light household tasks that bring reassurance and independence. Shifts are often short visits or regular calls, and the pace is driven by the person you support rather than by institutional rounds. Pay is set by you — carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and commonly charge within £18.80–£20 per hour. You may see figures that align with £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care or £148–£162.50 per day for live‑in days, depending on each family’s needs.

This work suits experienced carers who want more control. If you're considering leaving agency patterns but still want steady introductions to families in Cofton Common and nearby areas like Birmingham City Centre, Chinese Quarter, Jewellery Quarter, Brindleyplace, Birmingham and Gun Quarter, PrimeCarers helps you make that transition. You remain fully self‑employed: you choose your clients, your hours and your service area. Meanwhile PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work.

To join you need:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience
• An Enhanced DBS (PrimeCarers can help arrange this)
• The right to work in the UK
• Verifiable references

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your experience and references, and we’ll verify the details — profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you can review introductions and accept only the clients that suit your skills and schedule in Cofton Common and across the West Midlands.
