Description
Work as a self-employed private carer in Grantown on Spey, delivering hourly daytime home care to people who want to stay independent in their own homes. You’ll support personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts and light errands across Grantown on Spey and nearby communities in Moray. New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.
The day-to-day is local, hands-on and flexible: short visits for washing and dressing, support with mobility and eating, taking and logging medications, shopping runs and companionship. This is hourly home care, not live-in care. As a PrimeCarers carer you set your own rates and your own schedule, so you decide how many calls you take and when. Many carers in the area set rates in the range £15–£25 per hour depending on experience and travel.
This type of work suits an experienced carer who wants to move away from rota-driven agency life and have more control. You’ll pick your clients, choose the hours you do and define your service area around Grantown on Spey and the surrounding parts of Moray. PrimeCarers finds local clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.
To join you’ll need:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience.
- An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need one.
- The right to work in the UK.
- Verifiable references from recent care roles.
PrimeCarers supports independent carers in practical ways: we manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance cover while you’re working with a client found through the platform. You remain self-employed and in control of your day — you choose which referrals you accept and how far you’ll travel.
Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
