Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Ludgershall

PrimeCarers connects experienced self-employed carers with families across Ludgershall and the wider Wiltshire area who need live-in support. Live-in care means you’ll stay in a client’s home, help with daily routines and household tasks, and be on hand around the clock with agreed breaks. Live-in roles suit carers who like continuity, building relationships and the stability of a set placement, whether you already live nearby or travel in for a placement from another part of the country. Right now, 112 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Pay and flexibility are at the heart of our approach. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area they accept. Typical pay for care work ranges from £19–£21 per hour for hourly visits to £145–£160 per day for live-in days; many carers list rates around £145–£160 per day when they want to attract local Ludgershall families while keeping flexibility. You won’t be tied to rotas — you pick the placements that fit your life and commuting plans.

What the role involves: living with the client in their home, supporting morning and evening routines, personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation and companionship. You’ll also manage light household chores, support mobility and liaise with family or health professionals as needed. Every placement is different; the family and carer agree working patterns and break arrangements before you start.

Who we’re looking for: carers with at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS (PrimeCarers can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We ask that you can demonstrate the skills, empathy and reliability needed for a live-in role. PrimeCarers provides guidance on contracts, safe working and travel for placements that may be outside your immediate area, including nearby towns such as Tidworth, Andover, Amesbury, Hungerford, Marlborough and Salisbury.

How PrimeCarers supports you: we find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you work. That means you can focus on care and relationships, not paperwork. Applying is quick — it takes minutes to create a profile, and profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you’re considering moving away from agency work to run your own self-employed care practice, PrimeCarers gives you the admin cover and client introductions to make that change smoother in Ludgershall and across Wiltshire.

This is an ongoing opportunity to connect directly with families seeking live-in care; it is not a single position. If you’re an experienced carer who wants more control over your work, tools and support to get started are one click away.
