Companion Carer Jobs in Faringdon

Companionship care in Faringdon is about being present: good conversation, trips to the park or café, hobbies, gentle prompting with daily tasks and light help around the home. You’ll offer reassurance and company to people who value connection more than hands-on clinical support. Right now, 6 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work suits experienced carers who enjoy conversation, shared interests and uncomplicated support. You’ll set your own pace and your own boundaries — how many visits you do, which clients you accept and the area you cover around Faringdon and nearby towns such as Bampton, Lechlade, Highworth, Carterton, Wantage and Fairford. Many carers who move from agency roles choose companionship work for a calmer, more predictable way of working.

Rates for companionship roles typically sit in the range £19.20–£22 per hour, and because you’re self-employed you set your own rates. PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work. That means you can focus on the relationship and the practical support rather than chasing paperwork or unpaid invoices.

PrimeCarers is used across Oxfordshire and the surrounding villages, so you’ll see opportunities for regular daytime visits, afternoon calls and social outings. You choose the hours that fit your life: part-time, regular rounds or a handful of mornings a week. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

• At least one year of professional care experience.
• An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed.

PrimeCarers supports self-employed carers while they build their client list.
