Functional Assessor - Wood Green

Are you a talented NMC or HCPC registered professional, encompassing broad-based medical experience and great people skills? The WCA Functional Assessor role may be a great fit for you!

What does the Functional Assessor role involve?

The role will involve you carrying out 5 client assessments per day with people claiming for WCA (Work Capability Assessment). A typical day will see you carry out telephone, video or face-to-face assessments to understand how a person's disability or health condition affects their daily life. Youll listen to their experiences, ask questions and use your insights to produce a factual report to help the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) determine their eligibility for WCA. That's the good news; the DWP make the final decision, you don't. Your role is to gather information and produce the report.

This is an exceptional opportunity to work with a well-established, people focussed organisation. You'll receive outstanding training and support to ensure you are the best you can be in your new role!
