Companion Carer Jobs in Walton on the Naze

Are you an experienced carer in Walton on the Naze looking for more control over who you work for and when? PrimeCarers connects self-employed companion carers with families who want conversation, outings, company and light help around the home. You’ll spend time prompting memories, accompanying people to local cafés or the promontory, helping with hobbies, and giving reassurance when it matters most.

Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Companion care is about presence and patience more than personal care tasks. Typical duties include friendly visits, talking and listening, accompanying clients on short walks or to appointments, supporting hobbies and interests, and light household help such as making drinks, tidying, or preparing simple snacks. If you enjoy companionship, building rapport and creating calm, meaningful time, this role will suit you.

PrimeCarers is built for people leaving traditional agency setups. As a self-employed carer you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and the area you cover. Rates for this work typically fall around £18.80–£20 per hour and you choose what feels right for you. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care and connection.

Most carers who join PrimeCarers continue to live and work locally. Many of the families we introduce are in Walton on the Naze and surrounding Essex communities, including Frinton on Sea, Holland on Sea, Dovercourt, Harwich, Clacton on Sea and Parkeston. You’ll have the flexibility to accept only the assignments that match your skills and availability.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. The application only takes minutes and, after verification, profiles typically go live within days. There’s no single advertised job here — we’re inviting carers to join the platform and start choosing ongoing self-employed work.
