This role is ideally suited to healthcare professionals who are flexible and able to travel to different assessment locations at short notice to support service delivery requirements. When not undertaking face-to-face assessments, you will work remotely from home completing telephone assessments.

Ready for a Better Work-Life Balance Without Leaving Your Profession?

If you're a registered healthcare professional looking to move away from hands-on clinical shifts but still want to use your clinical expertise in a meaningful way - this could be your next step. At PFAS, you'll apply your professional judgement in a structured, supportive environment where your evenings and weekends are your own.

More than a job, a career with purpose. No night shifts and unpredictable rotas, just a clear, focused Monday-Friday role where your clinical knowledge directly supports fair decision-making.

  • Clear development pathway
  • £1000 salary uplift after your first 6 months and a further £1000 salary uplift after 12 months

  • £1,500 employee referral scheme

We invest in our clinicians and we reward performance!

  • Reviewing and interpreting clinical evidence
  • Producing detailed, high-quality written reports
  • Applying professional judgement in line with regulatory standards
