(Nurse, Paramedic, Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist)

Salary: £42,000-£46,000

Location: Redcar | Full-time, permanent

Are you looking to move away from frontline clinical work, while still using your clinical expertise in a different way?

As a PIP Functional Assessor / Disability Assessor with Medacs Healthcare, you’ll carry out functional assessments to understand how health conditions affect everyday life. This is a non‑hands‑on clinical role, focused on clinical reasoning, analysis and report writing rather than treatment.

The hybrid working model combines home working with time at one of our assessment centres, offering predictable hours, long-term stability and a healthier work–life balance.

We offer a starting salary of £42,000, which will increase to £46,000 at 12 months once fully accredited and working from a site a minimum of 3 days per week. Annual salary reviews thereafter, performance related incentives and overtime also available.

What you’ll do

• Carry out face-to-face and telephone assessments
• Analyse medical evidence and clinical information
• Produce accurate, evidence-based reports
• Work to defined clinical frameworks and quality standards
• Collaborate with clinical and administrative colleagues
• Attend the assessment centre as required

What we’re looking for

• NMC or HCPC registered Nurse, Paramedic, Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist
• Minimum 1 year’s UK clinical experience
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Confident use of digital systems (35 WPM typing speed)
• Right to work in the UK (sponsorship not available)

What’s on offer

• Competitive salary with structured pay progression and bonus potential
• £1000 Approval bonus (terms apply)
• Hybrid working
• Structured hours (no evenings, weekends or bank holidays)
• 25 days’ annual leave plus your birthday off
• NMC/HCPC fee reimbursement after probation
• Comprehensive training and ongoing clinical support
• Clear progression and CPD opportunities

You’ll be suited to this role if you

• Prefer structured assessments and clear clinical guidelines
• Are confident working with evidence and detailed reports
• Feel confident using computers and learning new clinical systems
• Are looking for a more predictable work–life balance

This role may not be the right fit if you

• Want to remain in hands-on or acute clinical settings
• Do not enjoy detailed report writing
• Prefer less structure or minimal process-driven work
