About the Role

This is an excellent opportunity for doctors who wish to use their clinical expertise in a new and rewarding setting, while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

As a Functional Assessor, you will:

• Conduct assessments via telephone or video consultations to understand how a person’s health condition or disability affects their daily life.
• Use your clinical judgement and communication skills to evaluate the impact of various conditions.
• Produce factual, evidence-based medical reports that help the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) determine eligibility for disability benefits.
• Complete assessments typically last around 45 minutes, with comprehensive training and ongoing support provided to ensure your success.

What We’re Looking For

• GMC-registered Doctor with a minimum of 2 years’ post-registration experience (FY2 or above).
• Strong communication and report-writing skills.
• Ability to work towards individual and team goals within a supportive environment. xwzovoh
• Broad medical knowledge, with experience managing a range of physical and mental health conditions.

What’s on Offer

• Competitive Salary – £72,000 per annum
• 31 days annual leave (including Bank Holidays)
• GMC fee reimbursement & CPD support
• Private medical insurance & life assurance
• Enhanced maternity and paternity packages
• Flexible working – full-time, part-time, hybrid working
• Comprehensive clinical training and ongoing professional development
• Career progression opportunities across multiple clinical pathways
• Revalidation support with GMC fees reimbursed
• Company pension
• Inclusive, supportive work culture – recognised Disability Confident Leader
• Cycle to Work scheme, pension plan, wellbeing initiatives, and more

Schedule

• Monday to Friday, 37.5hrs per week
• No weekends, nights, or on-call commitments
• Genuine work-life balance
