Visiting Carer Jobs in Ellon

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed visiting carers with families in and around Ellon. You’ll visit clients in their own homes to help with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands, working daytimes on an hourly basis. New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

Work in Ellon and the surrounding area on terms that suit you. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates — many choose £18.80–£20 per hour depending on the support they provide. You pick the clients you accept, the hours you work and the area you cover, whether you prefer local rounds in central Ellon or visits out towards the fringes of Aberdeenshire and villages nearby. You may find opportunities near Oldmeldrum, Maud, Inverurie, Boddam, Kintore and Clerkhill as well as other neighbouring communities.

This role suits experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency work. If you enjoy focused one-to-one support, steady daytime visits and helping people stay independent at home, this could be a good fit. Typical daytime tasks include personal care, dressing, mealtime support, medication prompts, light household tasks and short errands to shops or appointments. Visits are hourly and designed to fit around clients’ routines, not long fixed shifts.

What PrimeCarers handles for you: we find clients, manage contracts, process invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. That means less admin and more time providing care. You remain self-employed, so you manage your own tax and business responsibilities, but we support the practical bits that usually slow carers down.

Entry requirements (what you'll need to join):

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