<p><strong>&pound;39,500 | Hybrid working | Full time or part time | Monday&ndash;Friday, no nights, no weekends, no on-call</strong></p>

<p><strong>Still love being a clinician &mdash; just not everything that comes with it?</strong></p>

<p>If you&#39;re a nurse tired of unsafe staffing levels, a paramedic worn down by 12-hour shifts and missed meal breaks, a physiotherapist buried under waiting lists, or an OT whose caseload never stops growing &mdash; this is a different way to use your clinical expertise.</p>

<p>Our client is opening a <strong>brand new assessment site in Mansfield</strong>, and we&#39;re recruiting the founding team of Functional Assessors. You&#39;ll carry out Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessments, using your clinical knowledge and communication skills to understand how a person&#39;s health condition or disability affects their daily life, and producing high-quality written reports for the DWP.</p>

<p><strong>Who can apply?</strong></p>

<p>You&#39;ll be a registered clinician with <strong>at least 12 months&#39; post-registration experience</strong> from one of the following backgrounds:</p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Nurses</strong> (RGN, RMN, RNLD) &mdash; NMC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Paramedics</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Physiotherapists</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Occupational Therapists</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
</ul>

<p>Broad clinical experience is more important than a specialist background &mdash; we welcome applicants from acute, community, mental health and primary care settings.</p>

<p><strong>Why clinicians make the move:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Your evenings and weekends back</strong> &mdash; Monday to Friday, sociable hours, and genuine flexibility with full-time and part-time options</li>
	<li><strong>Hybrid working</strong> &mdash; a blend of clinic-based assessments at the new Coventry site and working from home</li>
	<li><strong>Full salary from day one</strong> &mdash; including a comprehensive, fully paid training programme (no unpaid study time)</li>
	<li><strong>Keep your registration</strong> &mdash; your NMC or HCPC registration is maintained and revalidation supported</li>
	<li><strong>One person at a time</strong> &mdash; structured appointments where you can give each individual your full attention, without the pressure of an understaffed unit or an ambulance queue</li>
	<li><strong>A new team, not an established hierarchy</strong> &mdash; as part of the founding cohort at a new site, you&#39;ll shape the culture from day one</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>The role:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>Conduct PIP assessments face-to-face, by telephone and by video</li>
	<li>Take a detailed clinical history and carry out functional examinations where appropriate</li>
	<li>Produce clear, evidence-based reports to support DWP decision-making</li>
	<li>Work autonomously with the backing of clinical support, coaching and a structured quality framework</li>
</ul>

<p>No previous assessor experience is needed &mdash; full training is provided, and our candidates benefit from Gaia Recruitment&#39;s specialist interview and assessment preparation, which is why our clinicians succeed at nearly double the industry average rate.</p>

<p><strong>Ready for a change?</strong></p>

<p>Apply now or contact the Gaia Recruitment team for a confidential conversation about whether the role is right for you.</p>

Step Into a More Fulfilling Role as an Assessment Specialist</b></p>

<p>Are you a dedicated healthcare professional ready for something different &mdash; something that lets you use your clinical skills in a new, meaningful way?</p>

<p>If you&#39;re a Nurse (RGN, RMN, RNLD), Occupational Therapist, Physiotherapist, or Paramedic, this could be the perfect next step for you.</p>

<p>Our client delivers fair, thorough and compassionate assessments for individuals applying for the Government&rsquo;s Personal Independence Payment (PIP). Their focus is simple: helping people feel heard, understood and supported.</p>

<p>This role gives you the opportunity to use your expertise without shift work, bedside care, or the physical demands of your current role &mdash; all while making a real impact.</p>

<p><b>What You&rsquo;ll Be Doing</b></p>

<p>As a Functional Assessor, you&#39;ll:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Conduct telephone, video, in-person and paper-based assessments to understand how a claimant&rsquo;s condition impacts their daily life</li>
	<li>Work in a hybrid model &mdash; primarily from home, with scheduled days at your nearest assessment centre</li>
	<li>Produce clear, detailed 3,000&ndash;4,000&#8209;word reports to support decision making by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)</li>
	<li>Apply your clinical judgement with professionalism, empathy and impartiality</li>
</ul>

<p>You&rsquo;ll receive full training to help you deliver high&#8209;quality assessments and confident, evidence&#8209;based reports.</p>

<p><b>Training and Support</b></p>

<ul>
	<li>This role is different from traditional healthcare, which is why you&rsquo;ll receive a structured training programme (Monday to Friday, 9am&ndash;5pm).</li>
	<li>The first six months can be the steepest learning curve, so dedicated mentorship and ongoing support will be in place to help you succeed.</li>
</ul>

<p><b>Salary and Benefits</b></p>

<ul>
	<li>Starting salary: &pound;39,500 per year</li>
	<li>OTE up to &pound;43,450</li>
	<li>Clear development and progression pathways</li>
	<li>Hybrid working</li>
	<li>Improved work&ndash;life balance</li>
</ul>

<p><b>What You Need</b></p>

<p>To apply, you must have:</p>

<ul>
	<li>A minimum of one year post&#8209;registration experience as a nurse, occupational therapist, physiotherapist or paramedic</li>
	<li>Full registration with NMC, HCPC or equivalent, with a valid PIN and no restrictions</li>
	<li>Strong communication, listening and observational skills</li>
	<li>The ability to type at least 32 words per minute</li>
	<li>Confident IT skills, including Microsoft Office and remote systems such as MS Teams</li>
	<li>A compassionate, balanced and professional approach</li>
</ul>

<p><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif">Disclaimer:</span></span></b><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif"> UK clinical titles are legally protected. Applicants must hold valid professional registration (e.g., NMC, GMC, HCPC) where required. It is a criminal offence to falsely claim to be a registered healthcare professional.</span></span></p>

<p><strong>&pound;39,500 | Hybrid working | Full time or part time | Monday&ndash;Friday, no nights, no weekends, no on-call</strong></p>

<p><strong>Still love being a clinician &mdash; just not everything that comes with it?</strong></p>

<p>If you&#39;re a nurse tired of unsafe staffing levels, a paramedic worn down by 12-hour shifts and missed meal breaks, a physiotherapist buried under waiting lists, or an OT whose caseload never stops growing &mdash; this is a different way to use your clinical expertise.</p>

<p>Our client is opening a <strong>brand new assessment site in Coventry</strong>, and we&#39;re recruiting the founding team of Functional Assessors. You&#39;ll carry out Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessments, using your clinical knowledge and communication skills to understand how a person&#39;s health condition or disability affects their daily life, and producing high-quality written reports for the DWP.</p>

<p><strong>Who can apply?</strong></p>

<p>You&#39;ll be a registered clinician with <strong>at least 12 months&#39; post-registration experience</strong> from one of the following backgrounds:</p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Nurses</strong> (RGN, RMN, RNLD) &mdash; NMC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Paramedics</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Physiotherapists</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Occupational Therapists</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
</ul>

<p>Broad clinical experience is more important than a specialist background &mdash; we welcome applicants from acute, community, mental health and primary care settings.</p>

<p><strong>Why clinicians make the move:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Your evenings and weekends back</strong> &mdash; Monday to Friday, sociable hours, and genuine flexibility with full-time and part-time options</li>
	<li><strong>Hybrid working</strong> &mdash; a blend of clinic-based assessments at the new Coventry site and working from home</li>
	<li><strong>Full salary from day one</strong> &mdash; including a comprehensive, fully paid training programme (no unpaid study time)</li>
	<li><strong>Keep your registration</strong> &mdash; your NMC or HCPC registration is maintained and revalidation supported</li>
	<li><strong>One person at a time</strong> &mdash; structured appointments where you can give each individual your full attention, without the pressure of an understaffed unit or an ambulance queue</li>
	<li><strong>A new team, not an established hierarchy</strong> &mdash; as part of the founding cohort at a new site, you&#39;ll shape the culture from day one</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>The role:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>Conduct PIP assessments face-to-face, by telephone and by video</li>
	<li>Take a detailed clinical history and carry out functional examinations where appropriate</li>
	<li>Produce clear, evidence-based reports to support DWP decision-making</li>
	<li>Work autonomously with the backing of clinical support, coaching and a structured quality framework</li>
</ul>

<p>No previous assessor experience is needed &mdash; full training is provided, and our candidates benefit from Gaia Recruitment&#39;s specialist interview and assessment preparation, which is why our clinicians succeed at nearly double the industry average rate.</p>

<p><strong>Ready for a change?</strong></p>

<p>Apply now or contact the Gaia Recruitment team for a confidential conversation about whether the role is right for you.</p>

	<li><strong>Paramedics</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Physiotherapists</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
	<li><strong>Occupational Therapists</strong> &mdash; HCPC registered</li>
</ul>

<p>Broad clinical experience is more important than a specialist background &mdash; we welcome applicants from acute, community, mental health and primary care settings.</p>

<p><strong>Why clinicians make the move:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Your evenings and weekends back</strong> &mdash; Monday to Friday, sociable hours, and genuine flexibility with full-time and part-time options</li>
	<li><strong>Hybrid working</strong> &mdash; a blend of clinic-based assessments at the new Coventry site and working from home</li>
	<li><strong>Full salary from day one</strong> &mdash; including a comprehensive, fully paid training programme (no unpaid study time)</li>
	<li><strong>Keep your registration</strong> &mdash; your NMC or HCPC registration is maintained and revalidation supported</li>
	<li><strong>One person at a time</strong> &mdash; structured appointments where you can give each individual your full attention, without the pressure of an understaffed unit or an ambulance queue</li>
	<li><strong>A new team, not an established hierarchy</strong> &mdash; as part of the founding cohort at a new site, you&#39;ll shape the culture from day one</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>The role:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>Conduct PIP assessments face-to-face, by telephone and by video</li>
	<li>Take a detailed clinical history and carry out functional examinations where appropriate</li>
	<li>Produce clear, evidence-based reports to support DWP decision-making</li>
	<li>Work autonomously with the backing of clinical support, coaching and a structured quality framework</li>
</ul>

<p>No previous assessor experience is needed &mdash; full training is provided, and our candidates benefit from Gaia Recruitment&#39;s specialist interview and assessment preparation, which is why our clinicians succeed at nearly double the industry average rate.</p>
