Description

Join PrimeCarers as a self‑employed Hourly Care Assistant providing daytime home visits across Lossiemouth. You’ll support people in their own homes with personal care, preparing meals, medication prompts and light errands — the practical, companionable care many families prefer. New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

These ongoing roles are ideal if you want the variety of visiting different homes during the day while keeping control of your working life. In Lossiemouth and the wider Moray area you may be asked to help with personal care, dressing, continence support, meal preparation, medication reminders and shopping or appointment runs. Visits are generally short daytime calls, allowing you to build relationships without residential commitments.

Pay and schedule are yours to decide. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit them. Typical rates for this kind of hourly home care sit around £15–£25 per hour, and you decide what reflects your experience and travel. You remain fully self‑employed and free to balance care work with other commitments.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care: we find clients, manage contracts, invoice and take care of payments. Insurance is included while you are working on a PrimeCarers booking. You’re supported when it comes to paperwork and getting paid, but still in charge of who you work with and when.

To join we ask for at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this if you need one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll also confirm the area you cover — many carers cover Lossiemouth and nearby towns such as Elgin, Buckie, Forres, Cullen, Keith and Dufftown.

Applying takes just minutes and our verification process is straightforward. Most profiles go live within days of checks being completed, so you can start hearing from local families quickly. If you’re used to agency life but want more control, or if you’re already self‑employed and looking for more regular daytime visits in Lossiemouth and Moray, this could be a good fit.
