About the Role
NMC and HCPC professionals are eligible to apply. The Disability Assessor role involves carrying out 3 client assessments per day assessing clients seeking PIP (Personal Independence Payment). 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. You’ll 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 benefits.

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 Disability Assessor role!
