Companion Carer Jobs in Shenley Fields

If you enjoy company, conversation and gentle support, offering companionship care in Shenley Fields could be the change you’re looking for. Companion work is about building trust: sharing tea and a chat, joining someone on local walks or hobbies, supporting outings to shops or clubs and providing light help around the home so a client feels safe and reassured. Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is an ongoing self-employed opportunity for experienced carers who want more control over their work. You set your own rates and schedules and choose the clients you accept. Typical pay sits around £18.50–£20 per hour and many carers use the platform to advertise both hourly shifts (£18.50–£20 per hour) and occasional live‑in days (£145–£160 per day). PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work.

Companionship roles suit people who are patient, sociable and reliable. You don’t need clinical experience for most companion care visits, but we require at least one year of professional care experience. To join you’ll also need an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify everything quickly so your profile can go live within days.

Working via PrimeCarers means you stay self‑employed: you choose your service area, hours and clients, whether you want a couple of regular weekly calls in Shenley Fields or a handful of daytime visits across the area. Many carers cover nearby communities such as Shenley Green, Middle Quinton, Weoley Castle, Weoley Hill, Bartley Green and Frankley, and across the wider West Midlands, while keeping full control of their diary.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, add your experience and references, and PrimeCarers will contact you about verification. Once approved your profile usually shows to families within days — after that you can start accepting bookings straight away. This listing is for ongoing self‑employed companionship opportunities, not one specific post.

If you’re ready to keep the things you love about care but ditch restrictive rotas and agency rules, creating a PrimeCarers profile is the simplest next step. Shenley Fields needs kind, experienced companion carers — join other local carers offering dependable, dignified company in the community.
