Do you have 12+ months of UK-based post-registration experience as an NMC registered nurse (RGN, RMN, RNLD) or HCPC registered physiotherapist or occupational therapist?

Key benefits include 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays, up to 10% quarterly bonus, supported/paid CPD for clinicians with registration fees reimbursed, private pension scheme, private medical insurance, maternity and parental leave, online shopping discounts, and a variety of other financial and lifestyle options.

As a Functional Assessor, your primary responsibilities will be conducting health and disability assessments to understand each person’s unique needs, carrying out Work Capability Assessments (WCA) which evaluate physical, mental, intellectual, and cognitive functions to determine work capability, preparing detailed reports and recommendations for submission to the Department of Work and Pensions, and collaborating with colleagues to provide high-quality service to claimants while contributing to continuous service improvement.
