Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Gun Quarter

Live-in care in Gun Quarter means living in with a client in their own home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. You’ll be there for companionship, personal care, medication prompting and household support tailored to the person’s needs. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, and you can too because PrimeCarers connects families and carers nationwide. Right now, 117 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These ongoing self-employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. You set your own rates, choose clients, hours and your service area, and you can advertise availability for live-in work specifically. Typical earnings sit within £146–£162 per day, depending on the needs of the client and the hours agreed. Live-in work is intensive but rewarding: you’ll build continuity, often becoming the main point of contact for the person and their family in Gun Quarter and the wider West Midlands.

PrimeCarers handles the practical side so you can focus on care. We find clients, manage contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. That means less admin for you and a clear agreement for each placement. Carers remain fully self-employed: you negotiate your fees and agree working patterns directly with families before a placement begins.

Who this suits: experienced, compassionate carers with at least one year of professional care experience and the stamina for live-in roles. You must have the right to work in the UK and be able to provide verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it. Many carers relocating into Gun Quarter come from nearby areas or further afield; you’ll often work with families in and around Birmingham, Gosta Green, New Town Row, Duddeston, Birmingham City Centre and Cofton Common.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload references and checks, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. From there families can contact you directly to discuss a live-in arrangement and agree hours, breaks and responsibilities. PrimeCarers supports the agreement process so expectations are clear before you move in.

If you’re ready to move away from rigid rotas and work more directly with families in Gun Quarter and the West Midlands, joining PrimeCarers could be the change you’re looking for. Creating a profile is quick, you remain self-employed and fully in control of the clients you accept.
