Discover a new kind of career in healthcare as a functional specialist
Are you working in healthcare, and looking for a change? If you’re a nurse (RGN, RMN or RNLD) occupational therapist, physiotherapist or paramedic, you could use your skills differently as a functional specialist.
If your skills, experience, and qualifications match those in this job overview, do not delay your application.
Their functional specialists write reports which help the Department for Communities (DfC) make important decisions about a person’s health and care.
Day to Day
You will be conducting initial reviews, paper-based, face-to-face, video or telephone assessments to evaluate how a claimant’s health condition or disability affects their day-to-day life
Our client's hybrid model means you’ll be based at home and assigned to work from your nearest assessment centre on a rota basis to deliver face-to-face assessments. You’ll spend additional time in our centres or office locations to catch up with your manager and wider team or attend in-person training sessions.
To create the report you will be observing and reporting on an individual’s ability to carry out activities whilst analysing and interpreting clinical information and supporting evidence. You will create three comprehensive 3,000-4,000-word reports of the evidence gathered for each claimant, each day. You will be trained to provide detail, evidence and justification are given to support the DWP in making decisions
.
Our Offer
It’s a challenging role and can be quite different from other healthcare professions, and that’s why our client takes your training and development seriously. You’ll begin with a 12 week, training programme (Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm) with time set aside for self-development learning. We also have 3 day and 4 day training options available.
The first six months can be the most difficult, so we’ll be there to support you, with close mentorship provided as you work on your ongoing development. Everyone starts at £38,500 per annum (pro rata for part-time) plus a 5% retention bonus. On achievement of remote approved status, your salary will increase to £39,900 plus up to 10% bonus. On achievement of face-to-face delivery, your salary will increase to £41,500 plus up to 10% bonus.
Your requirements
- one year's post-registration experience as a nurse, occupational therapist, physiotherapist or paramedic
- fully registered with a relevant UK regulatory body (NMC, HCPC or other), without restriction or conditions and with a valid PIN
- excellent observational and communication skills, giving you the ability to listen, empathise and dig deeper
- the ability to type at a minimum of 30 words per minute
- demonstrable experience with using IT and Microsoft Office, as well as remotely accessing systems such MS Teams
