Description
Are you an experienced carer looking for flexible daytime visiting work around Southwark? PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families who need help with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands in their own homes. Visits are typically daytime and suited to carers who prefer short, reliable calls across Southwark and nearby neighbourhoods. Right now, 225 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This is for carers who want to move away from agency rotas and take control of their work. You set your own hours, choose which clients you’ll visit and decide how far you’ll travel. Typical pay for these visiting roles is £18.80–£20 per hour, and because you’re self-employed you name the rate that reflects your skills and experience.
PrimeCarers does the matching and the paperwork. We find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance cover while you are working through the platform. That means you can focus on care, not admin. You can work across Southwark, into other parts of Greater London and in neighbouring areas such as Tower Hill, Aldgate, Bankside, Elephant and Castle, Newington and Bermondsey.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We’ll ask you to upload your documents during sign-up so we can verify your profile. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.
Day-to-day visiting work often includes personal care (washing, dressing), meal support, helping with medication prompts, light household tasks and running errands. You’ll be matched with families looking for reliable, professional daytime visits in Southwark and surrounding neighbourhoods. If you value predictable, respectful work and want more control over your diary, these ongoing self-employed opportunities are designed for you.
Ready to take the next step? Create a profile, add your experience and references, and we’ll support you through verification. You’ll keep full control of your clients, your hours and your rates while PrimeCarers manages the rest so you can get on with the care you do best.
