Worker jobs in United Kingdom

OH Medical is recruiting on behalf of a leading occupational health provider for an enthusiastic Peripatetic Occupational Health Technician to join a growing mobile clinical team. If you enjoy variety, independence and being out and about rather than tied to one site, this role ticks a lot of boxes.

Based in the East Midlands, you’ll travel regionally with occasional nationwide trips, delivering vital health surveillance services directly to client sites using a Mobile Medical Unit (MMU). No two days look quite the same, and the work you do genuinely helps keep the UK workforce healthy and safe.

This is a hands‑on, practical role delivering high‑quality health surveillance and screening services across a wide range of industries. You’ll be fully supported with a 3‑week structured training and induction programme, plus ongoing mentoring once you’re up and running.

Perfect for someone who’s organised, people‑focused and confident working independently while still being part of a wider OH team.

• Carry out health surveillance screenings including audiometry, lung function and baseline measurements
• Record accurate clinical data and maintain high‑quality OH records
• Ensure all equipment is clean, calibrated and fit for purpose
• Support health promotion activities on client sites
• Provide biometric data to support nurses and physicians with clinical decision‑making
• Work closely with the wider occupational health team to ensure smooth service delivery

• Highly organised with excellent time management and communication skills
• Strong understanding of GDPR and data handling
• Confident working independently and managing your own workload
• Approachable, professional and comfortable building relationships on site
• Backgrounds well suited to this role include:
  • Experienced OHT
  • Hospital Healthcare Worker
  • Emergency Care Assistant / Technician

A manual UK driving licence is essential. You must be at least 21 years old and have held your licence for a minimum of 12 months. A licence share code will also be requested.

• 37.5 hours per week
• Typically worked between 8:00am and 6:00pm

• Travel across the East Midlands
• With some Nationwide work as required
• Willingness to travel extensively with regular overnight stays. Typically, you’ll be away from home for around three weeks out of every four – but rest assured, you’ll always get home on Fridays for the weekend.

• • A diary viewable 6 weeks in advance, so you can plan ahead
  • £30 overnight subsistence for each night away
  • Access to a Premier Inn account for easy and stress‑free bookings
