Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Montrose

Live-in care in Montrose means living with a client in their home, supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks and staying close to the person you’re caring for. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements because they suit experienced, flexible professionals who prefer longer, relationship-based work over shift-by-shift agency life. Montrose offers seaside towns and quiet streets where continuity of care makes a real difference.

Right now, 11 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This is an ongoing stream of self-employed opportunities rather than a single role. You choose your clients, hours and service area, and set your own rates. Typical pay sits within £140–£160 per day for care work, with range options shown for hourly and live-in day work: £15–£25 per hour and £140–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds interested families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work.

Live-in roles suit carers who value continuity, enjoy household routines and want to build strong working relationships. You’ll help with personal care, meal support, medication prompts, mobility assistance and companionship, and you’ll work with families to agree patterns of respite and breaks. These placements often involve supporting day-to-day life and enabling independence in someone’s own home in Montrose and nearby areas such as Brechin, Laurencekirk, Arbroath, Inverbervie, Letham and Forfar.

Thinking of moving away from agency life? As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you have freedom: set your own rates, accept the clients you want and control your diary. You’ll still have practical support — PrimeCarers manages the contract paperwork, collects payments and provides insurance cover for the time you’re working with a client in Angus and beyond.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You can add these documents to your profile when you apply; the application only takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

If you’re ready for longer placements, reliable paperwork and more autonomy in Montrose, create a profile, set your availability and start looking at matches. Applicants from across the UK travel for live-in placements; if you’re willing to relocate temporarily for a placement, let families know in your profile.
