    Our healthcare colleagues are the driving force of our business.

    Voluntary benefits so you can pick the plans that are right for you and your family
    What you'll be doing as a Occupational Therapist – Functional Assessor
    Day-to-day, you'll carry out assessments to understand how a person's disability or health condition affects their daily life.

    You'll listen sensitively 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.

    It's important work that has a big impact on real lives, so we'll make sure you get the time to build a relationship with each customer you speak with.

    It'll be challenging at times, but we'll support you to manage your caseloads efficiently to deliver the best service to our customers.

    What we look for in Occupational Therapist – Functional Assessor
    An HCPC Cregistered Occupational Therapist with 1 year's broad post-registration experience
    Proactive and keen to learn
    Excellent oral and written communication skills
    Comfortable working towards team and individual targets, in a supportive environment
    Comfortable working with a diverse range of conditions, including mental health
