What you'll do

• You’ll provide comprehensive assessments for the Government's disability allowance (PIP), delivering face-to-face and virtual assessments, telephone assessments, initial review calls and paper-based reports (PBR).
• Managing your own caseloads gives you variety and autonomy, allowing you to shape each case with your expertise. You’ll assess a full range of conditions, including physical, sensory, mental, intellectual and cognitive impairments.
