Still passionate about healthcare but ready for a change from shift work, hands-on care and the pressures of frontline clinical practice?
This could be your opportunity to use your clinical expertise in a new way, without stepping away from your profession entirely.
Everpool Recruitment is recruiting PIP Disability Assessors for Serco, offering a different kind of clinical challenge, a structured Monday-to-Friday working pattern and the opportunity to develop your career outside traditional patient-facing roles.
Why Consider a Move?
- Monday–Friday working – no nights, weekends or bank holidays.
- Hybrid working – a combination of home and office-based work, depending on business requirements.
- Full-time and part-time opportunities – subject to completion of the required full-time training.
- Fully paid training – a structured 12-week programme to develop your assessment and report-writing skills.
- Career development – opportunities to progress into senior, quality and specialist positions.
- Transferable skills – put your clinical knowledge, communication skills and professional judgement to use in a different setting.
What Does a PIP Disability Assessor Do?
- As a PIP Disability Assessor, you will assess how an individual’s health conditions or disabilities affect their daily living activities and mobility.
- You will conduct assessments, review medical evidence and use your clinical expertise to produce clear, accurate and evidence-based reports.
- Your reports help the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) make informed decisions about Personal Independence Payment (PIP) claims.
- You will typically complete three assessments per day, balancing detailed clinical assessments with accurate documentation and workload targets.
- This is not a hands-on clinical role, but it is still a demanding position requiring strong clinical reasoning, analytical thinking, time management and high-quality report writing.
- You will need to be comfortable evaluating complex information, making objective recommendations and working to quality and productivity expectations.
Who Are We Looking For? We are interested in applicants who are:
- Registered Nurses, Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Paramedics or Pharmacists.
- Fully registered with an active, unrestricted professional registration.
- Able to demonstrate at least 12 months of relevant post-registration clinical experience.
- Confident communicating with people from a range of backgrounds.
- Strong in clinical assessment, evidence gathering and professional decision-making.
- Comfortable writing detailed reports and managing a structured workload.
Previous Functional Assessor experience is not usually required, as full training is provided. However, you must be willing to learn a new assessment framework and adapt your clinical skills to a report-based role.
What’s in It for You?
Alongside the Monday-to-Friday working pattern and hybrid options, you will receive a comprehensive training programme, annual leave entitlement, bank holidays, pension benefits and access to ongoing learning and development.
Eligible employees can also benefit from a 5% one-off approval bonus following successful approval after training, plus an annual performance and quality bonus of up to 10%, subject to the applicable scheme terms.
If you are ready to take your clinical career in a new direction while continuing to make a difference, we would love to hear from you.
