About the Role

We are looking for enthusiastic and reliable Occupational Health Technician to join a growing peripatetic team.

You’ll travel across the UK in a Mobile Medical Unit (MMU), visiting client sites to deliver high-quality health surveillance services. This is a varied role offering the opportunity to develop your occupational health skills while making a real difference to employee health and wellbeing across a range of industries.

No previous occupational health experience is essential, as you’ll receive a comprehensive 4-week training and induction programme, followed by ongoing mentoring and support.

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver health surveillance screenings, including audiometry, lung function testing and baseline measurements such as height, weight, blood pressure and urinalysis.
• Accurately record and maintain occupational health information and clinical data.
• Gather and record information to support nursing and physician-led clinical decision-making.
• Ensure all equipment is clean, maintained, serviceable and fit for purpose.
• Support health promotion activities and wider occupational health services.
• Work closely with the wider occupational health team to deliver a professional and high-quality service.
• Maintain high standards of confidentiality and comply with GDPR requirements.

About You

• Self-motivated, organised and reliable.
• Confident working independently and as part of a team.
• Able to manage competing priorities and work to deadlines.
• An excellent communicator with strong interpersonal skills.
• Comfortable delivering health surveillance and health promotion activities.
• Confident using initiative and working in a mobile, client-facing environment.
• Understanding of GDPR and the importance of maintaining confidentiality.

This role could suit candidates from a range of healthcare backgrounds, including:

• Healthcare Support Worker
• Emergency Care Assistant
• Ambulance Technician / Assistant
• Emergency Care Technician
• Army Medic

We would also welcome applications from Sports Science graduates looking to start a career in healthcare, provided you have experience carrying out baseline measurements.

Essential Requirements

• Full UK manual driving licence.
• Licence held for a minimum of 12 months.
• Must be aged 21 or over.
• Ability to provide a driving licence share code.
• Ability to travel extensively and stay away from home regularly.
• Suitable facility to park the Mobile Medical Unit at or near your home overnight.

Travel & Overnight Stays

This is a genuinely peripatetic role, so you should be comfortable with regular travel and overnight stays.

You may be away from home for approximately 3 weeks out of every 4, although you will always return home on Friday for the weekend.

To support a positive work-life balance, you’ll receive:

• 6 weeks’ diary visibility in advance.
• Subsistence payments for each night away from home.
• Access to a Premier Inn account for easy hotel booking.
• Company fuel card.

During the initial weeks of employment, you may need to use your own vehicle or a company-provided hire car while your new company van is being arranged.

Benefits

We offer a competitive benefits package, including:

• Contributory pension scheme up to 6%.
• Life assurance.
• 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing with length of service.
• Birthday day off (non-contractual benefit).
• Discounted gym membership.
• Health cashback plan.
• Full training and ongoing professional support.

If you’re looking for a role where you can develop your healthcare skills, travel to different locations and build a career in occupational health, we’d love to hear from you.
