Full job description
Company Description
Ingeus is a leading human services provider helping people, business and communities thrive through employment, skills and health & wellbeing services. We are a trusted partner to government and industry delivering services that create positive social impact and transform lives.
Job Description
Starting salary - £49,934 Salary at 12 months - £50,934+ benefits that includes quarterly bonus, private pension & medical insurance. Further salary uplifts as you learn new specialist skills.
Are you an experienced, motivated, high performing individual, with the desire to develop, learn and grow?
Are you looking for a different way to use your clinical skills, whilst gaining a better work-life balance?
If you have a minimum of 12 months post‑qualification & registration experience, have been practicing as a clinician for the last 12 months in the UK and looking for a role where you can use your clinical skills in a different way without stepping away from your profession — this may be the perfect next step for you.
What you’ll be doing each day
Carry out functional assessments with claimants face to face, via video & telephone to assess their ability to undertake activities of daily living.
Through the assessment process you’ll ask focused questions and use active listening and critical reasoning skills to gather accurate information.
Produce high quality, structured clinical reports on all claimants you assess, for submission to the DWP.
Review evidence, request and evaluate additional evidence when required and clinically triage cases to determine the correct assessment pathway.
Work alongside other highly experienced clinical colleagues to ensure high-quality & fair assessments for all claimants.
Is this role right for you?
Many clinicians find the role of a Functional Assessor rewarding, but it’s also challenging at the same time and it’s not the right fit for everyone.
This role would suit someone who:
Is open to a formalised programme of training to become a DWP approved Functional Assessor.
Is receptive to ongoing constructive feedback, ensuring our claimants continually get the very best experience.
Has confidence in their ability to use computers and in learning different software packages to complete detailed, high-quality reports for all claimants assessed.
Thrives in a working environment that offers structure and the opportunity to use your clinical skills in a different way.
This role may not be the best match for you if:
You are not comfortable or are unfamiliar with technology.
You dislike writing detailed reports.
You prefer a more hands on approach to clinical care.
You’re not looking for a new direction in your clinical career or to embark on period of retraining into a new role.
You don’t enjoy working in an environment with targets.
You are not looking for a role that requires you to work on site for 3 days a week.
As a Functional Assessor with Ingeus you can expect:
With excellent communication & critical-thinking skills, the ability to type and confidence using computers
