What You’ll Do

• Conduct functional assessment consultations with claimants
• Review medical evidence and create clear, structured clinical reports

Who We’re Looking For

This role is open to qualified, registered clinicians with experience in adult practice, including:

• Nurses (RGN, RMN, RNLD)
• Physiotherapists
• Occupational Therapists
• Paramedics

You must hold valid NMC or HCPC registration and have at least 12 months’ post‑registration clinical experience.

❗ Please note:

This role is NOT suitable for RSCNs (Registered Sick Children’s Nurses) or Midwives, as it requires adult‑focused clinical assessment experience in line with DWP standards.

Important Eligibility Disclaimer

This position is strictly open to applicants who are fully qualified and professionally registered clinicians.

You must hold current NMC or HCPC registration to be eligible.

Submitting an application without the required registration may constitute misrepresentation, which can be considered an offence under UK employment and professional standards legislation.

Only candidates who meet the clinical criteria will be considered.

Why This Role?

This opportunity offers clinicians a balanced and predictable working pattern while enabling them to continue making meaningful use of their professional knowledge in a structured and supportive environment.
