£39,500 | Hybrid working | Full time or part time | MondayFriday, no nights, no weekends, no on-call
Still love being a clinician just not everything that comes with it?
If you're a nurse tired of unsafe staffing levels, a paramedic worn down by 12-hour shifts and missed meal breaks, a physiotherapist buried under waiting lists, or an OT whose caseload never stops growing this is a different way to use your clinical expertise.
Our client is opening a brand new assessment site in Mansfield , and we're recruiting the founding team of Functional Assessors. You'll carry out Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessments, using your clinical knowledge and communication skills to understand how a person's health condition or disability affects their daily life, and producing high-quality written reports for the DWP.
Who can apply?
You'll be a registered clinician with at least 12 months' post-registration experience from one of the following backgrounds:
Nurses (RGN, RMN, RNLD) NMC registered
Paramedics HCPC registered
Physiotherapists HCPC registered
Occupational Therapists HCPC registered
Broad clinical experience is more important than a specialist background we welcome applicants from acute, community, mental health and primary care settings.
Why clinicians make the move:
Your evenings and weekends back Monday to Friday, sociable hours, and genuine flexibility with full-time and part-time options
Hybrid working a blend of clinic-based assessments at the new Coventry site and working from home
Full salary from day one including a comprehensive, fully paid training programme (no unpaid study time)
Keep your registration your NMC or HCPC registration is maintained and revalidation supported
One person at a time structured appointments where you can give each individual your full attention, without the pressure of an understaffed unit or an ambulance queue

The role:
Conduct PIP assessments face-to-face, by telephone and by video
