PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families who need conversation, outings, shared hobbies and light help around the home.

As a PrimeCarers carer you set your own terms. You choose which clients to work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover across Scunthorpe and surrounding North Lincolnshire communities like Winterton, Brigg, Crowle, Epworth, Kirton in Lindsey and Brough. Rates are set by you, typically around £18.50–£20 per hour, so you can match your price to the service you provide and the time you give.

This companionship role suits experienced carers who enjoy conversation and gentle practical support rather than hands-on personal care. Typical tasks include regular visits to keep someone company, accompanying outings to shops or cafés, joining in hobbies and light domestic help such as making a drink, preparing a snack or keeping rooms tidy. It’s ideal if you’re leaving agency work and want more control over who you support and when.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We find clients and manage contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working with a family. Carers on the platform are self-employed and set their own rates, choose clients, hours and service area.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We also ask that you can travel safely around Scunthorpe and nearby towns in North Lincolnshire when needed.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload documents and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. There’s no fixed rota to accept — you pick the work that fits your life. If you want friendly companionship work in Scunthorpe with the security of handled payments and insurance, PrimeCarers could be the change you’re ready for.
