Receive, interpret and manage highly complex health information from employees, managers and/or HR which may lead to restrictions being placed on an employee’s job role.

Backed by our vision and strategy, major capital investment and our commitment to developing our people and processes, we aim to grow our sales to £180m+ within the next 3-5 years.

About You

At Geary’s, we look for people who show up every day to do their best. We’re a passionate, friendly team and look for the same qualities in our new recruits. We firmly believe your attitude and approach is just as important (if not, more so) than the skills and experience on your CV.

What we’re looking for:

Must be a team player and happy to work autonomously.
Self‑motivated and proactive can be left to their own devices.
Focused on delivering the tasks, not just identifying what should be done.
Working on your initiative to complete and deliver.
Simplistic approach. We like to keep things simple but effective.
Persistent. If at first, you don’t succeed. You will adapt and find a way to overcome.
Solution focused, we are a small team, and you will have 100% responsibility for your area.
Must have the ability to interact with all levels of people, from the board of directors to a new factory operative.

Skills and Experience

Have a current NMC registration.
Have at least 3 years’ experience in Occupational Health.
Have experience in both case management and health surveillance.

Please submit a CV in application. No agencies.
