The role

What will you be doing?

What will you bring?

Our Vocational Rehabilitation team at Unum is growing and are looking for a number of consultants to join the team. As a Vocational Rehabilitation Consultant, you’ll be responsible for managing a caseload of referrals from both our customers and claims assessors to support employees in returning to the work place after a period of ill-health or injury.

You’ll use your consultancy and interviewing techniques to draw out information from employees, and use your clinical reasoning ability to develop comprehensive reports and provide appropriate recommendations and return to work plan for individuals. You’ll have excellent time management and organisational skills as you will be managing a caseload of 25-30 cases. Experience in case management and absence management would be desirable.

To be successful in this role you will come from a similar background, and have a professional or workplace qualification in psychology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, sports therapy/rehab or a registered nurse, or perhaps you have recently graduated with a relevant degree.

If successful, you will be provided with mentoring support for up to 3 months and will be supported by 2 mentors to get you to up to speed – we also support with biannual CPD days, regular clinical supervision and peer reviews.

Remote workers will be considered based on proximity to our office locations and are required to attend office days for CPD days, training and quarterly team meetings.

At Unum we have a whole range of benefits including professional subscriptions and qualifications, a performance bonus, pension, life insurance and income protection, but most importantly we are big on mental health and wellbeing for our employees and our customers, and if you are looking for flexibility in your working week then just let us know.

Why join us?

At Unum, we’ve created a workplace where people feel supported to progress and grow, and can see their ambitions coming to life.

We’ve built a supportive, inclusive environment where you can be yourself, whilst also being part of a growing organisation. From charity and volunteer opportunities to career growth, your possibilities are endless.
