Take Your Nursing Career in a New Direction! Are you an experienced Registered Nurse feeling ready for a change?
Perhaps you’re looking to step away from demanding ward environments, long shifts and the physical pressures of frontline nursing, but still want to put your clinical knowledge and experience to good use.
This could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for!
We’re recruiting Registered Nurses to become PIP Functional Assessors in Bournemouth, offering the chance to transition into a non-patient-facing clinical role with structured working hours, hybrid flexibility and excellent training.
How Will You Use Your Nursing Experience?
As a PIP Functional Assessor, you’ll use your existing nursing knowledge, clinical reasoning and assessment skills to understand how an individual’s health conditions impact their everyday life.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Conducting structured assessments with individuals experiencing a range of physical and mental health conditions.
- Gathering medical histories and reviewing clinical evidence.
- Exploring how health conditions affect daily living activities and mobility.
- Assessing functional abilities and identifying the impact of an individual’s conditions.
- Applying your clinical judgement to produce detailed, objective and evidence-based reports for the DWP.
Your nursing experience is incredibly valuable in this position, particularly your ability to assess patients, recognise clinical symptoms, understand complex conditions and communicate clinical findings.
Best of all, there is no hands-on patient care!
What Can We Offer You?
- Starting Salary of £45,000 increasing to £46,000 after 6 months then to £47,000 after 12 months
- Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm.
- No nights, weekends or bank holidays.

- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays.
- Option to purchase an additional 5 days.
- Pension scheme.
- Ongoing CPD and professional development.
- Annual performance and quality bonus opportunities.
What Are We Looking For? We’re particularly interested in Registered Nurses with experience across a variety of clinical settings, including:
- Acute and general medicine.
- Emergency departments.
- Community nursing.
- Medical and surgical wards.
- Elderly care and complex care.
- Mental health nursing.
- Rehabilitation and long-term condition management.
Essential requirements:
- Fully qualified Registered Nurse with active NMC registration.
- Minimum 12 months post-registration clinical experience.
- No restrictions or conditions on your NMC registration.
- Recent relevant UK clinical experience.
- Confident communication and report-writing skills.
