Job description

CHC Social Work Assessor — Location: Fully Remote (UK) — Contract: Permanent, Full-time (37.5 hrs)

We're looking for an experienced Social Worker CHC assessor to join a leading organisation delivering Continuing Healthcare (CHC) assessments.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone seeking a secure, long-term career in a supportive environment that values work‑life balance, career progression, and high‑quality patient‑centred care.

About the Role

• Chair Multi‑Disciplinary Team (MDT) meetings held online (MS Teams or Zoom) with patients, families, and care providers.
• Complete CHC assessments and reviews using the Decision Support Tool (DST), providing clear eligibility recommendations.
• Create person‑centred care and support plans.
• Liaise with local authority representatives and other professionals to gather evidence and ensure robust decision‑making.
• Work to agreed Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for quality, productivity, and service delivery.

This is a fully remote role, giving you the flexibility to balance professional and personal commitments while still making a tangible difference to people's lives.

What We're Looking For

We welcome applications from Registered Social Worker backgrounds with at least 12 months experience and:

• Previous experience completing CHC assessments and reviews within the NHS, Social Care or similar settings.
• Strong understanding of the CHC Framework 2022, Care Act 2014, and Mental Capacity Act 2005.
• Excellent written skills to produce clear, person‑centred, evidence‑based reports.
• Confident communication and empathy when dealing with sensitive, often complex health and social care matters.
• Ability to plan and organise workload, meet KPIs, and work collaboratively with other professionals.

Why This Role Stands Out

We know that choosing a permanent role is about more than salary. This position offers the stability of a secure employer and the opportunity to develop your career in a business that values and supports its people.

You'll benefit from:

• Competitive salary aligned with your experience.
• 25 days' annual leave plus 8 bank holidays (holiday entitlement increases with service).
• Contributory pension scheme.
• Private healthcare and dental insurance.
• Life assurance (4× your salary) and income protection for peace of mind.
• Option to buy extra annual leave.
• Blue Light Card, gym discounts, and salary‑sacrifice schemes.
• Wellbeing programmes – including fun activities, company days, and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
• Volunteer Days to give back to the community.
• A supportive workplace that values care, honesty, inspiration, and guidance.

This role is perfect for someone who wants career progression in a stable, growing organisation, while enjoying a healthy work‑life balance in a fully remote environment.

If you're an experienced CHC Social Worker looking for your next step, one that offers stability, professional development, and a better balance of work and life, we'd love to hear from you.

Join a team where you can deliver high‑quality CHC assessments and reviews that truly make a difference.
