PrimeCarers takes care of finding clients, handling contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you work — so you can focus on building meaningful relationships with those you care for.

To join, you’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can assist with this), the right to work in the UK, verifiable references, and at least one year’s experience in a professional care role.
