Companion Carer Jobs in Peterhead

Companionship care in Peterhead is about time, conversation and reassurance: regular visits to chat over a cuppa, company on local outings, support with hobbies and light help around the home. These roles suit people who enjoy being present, giving calm reassurance and keeping life connected for someone living at home. New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed companion carer and set your own terms. You choose which clients to work with and when to work, and you decide your rates — typical £15–£25 per hour. The day-to-day tasks are centred on companionship: listening, supporting social plans, accompanying short walks or errands, encouraging hobbies and helping with small domestic tasks that make a real difference.

Most companion care shifts are local to Peterhead and the surrounding area of Aberdeenshire. You can define your service area to include neighbouring communities such as Clerkhill, Boddam, Maud, Ellon, Fraserburgh and Rosehearty. PrimeCarers finds suitable clients, manages contracts, handles invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — so you can focus on the care and connection.

Minimum requirements to join
