Ready for a Change Without Leaving Your Clinical Career Behind? Are you looking to step away from the demands of frontline healthcare, shift patterns and hands-on care, but still want to make a difference using your clinical knowledge?

This could be the next step you've been looking for.

We're recruiting Registered Nurses, Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists to join Serco as WCA Functional Assessors in Watford.
This is an opportunity to take your clinical expertise in a different direction, developing your assessment and report-writing skills while enjoying a more structured working week.

What Does a WCA Functional Assessor Do?

You'll use your existing clinical knowledge to assess how an individual's health conditions affect their ability to work and undertake work-related activities.
Your responsibilities will include:

• Conducting structured assessments with individuals with a range of physical and mental health conditions.
• Gathering detailed medical and functional histories.
• Exploring how health conditions affect everyday activities, mobility and ability to work.
• Reviewing medical evidence and applying clinical reasoning to the information provided.
• Producing clear, accurate and evidence-based assessment reports.
• Using your professional judgement to provide objective recommendations.

You won't be diagnosing, prescribing or providing hands-on treatment. Instead, you'll be using your clinical experience to understand the impact of health conditions on an individual's functional ability.

What's in It for You?

• Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm working hours.
• No nights, weekends or bank holidays.
• Hybrid working, combining home and office-based work.
• Full-time and part-time opportunities.
• Fully paid, structured training to help you transition into the role.
• No previous Functional Assessor experience required.
• The opportunity to develop your clinical reasoning, assessment and report-writing skills.
• A more predictable routine and improved work-life balance.

Who Are We Looking For? You'll need to be:

• A Registered Nurse, Occupational Therapist or Physiotherapist.
• Fully registered with the NMC or HCPC, with active registration.
• Able to demonstrate at least 12 months of post-registration clinical experience.
• Confident communicating with individuals from different backgrounds.
• Comfortable working independently and managing your own workload.
• Able to apply clinical knowledge, professional judgement and strong written communication skills.

Please note: This position is specifically for the registered healthcare professions listed above. Applications from other professions will not meet the eligibility requirements.
