Are you a qualified Nurse in need of better work-life balance? Do you want regular hours so you can make the most of life? If so, we can offer you a Functional Assessor role that comes with 9 to 5 hours and true hybrid working - plus the chance to make the most of your medical skills. Could you be a Functional Assessor? Read on to find out.

The role

As a Functional Assessor your main task will be to assess individuals and how their disabilities or conditions affect their work life. Drawing on your clinical expertise, you'll listen carefully and take down each person's medical history before performing a physical examination. You'll then produce concise, accurate reports for the DWP so they can decide each person's eligibility for benefits.

The role involves meeting people both face-to-face and via telephone/video. But whether you connect online or in person, you'll be sensitive, compassionate and able to ask the right questions while upholding best practice standards.

Rest assured that you'll have the time you need to make a precise assessment and give each person your whole attention. And while you'll work unsupervised, you'll be part of a wider multi-disciplinary team - support is all part of the package.

Once you apply, one of our specialist sjb medical recruiters will support you through the virtual application submission process.
