Description
Work locally in Robin Hoods Bay as a self-employed hourly care assistant, providing daytime support in people’s own homes.

We’re looking for experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency work. If you’ve got at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references, you’re eligible to join. You’ll need an Enhanced DBS check; PrimeCarers can help arrange this for you if you don’t already have one. You remain self-employed: you set your own rate and service area and decide which clients to accept.
Pay and flexibility matter. Typical hourly pay falls in the range £15–£25 per hour and you set your own rate within that. You choose your working pattern — short daytime visits, longer morning or afternoon calls, or a mix that fits around family life, travel or other work. PrimeCarers manages bookings, contracts and payments so you can focus on care, not paperwork.
