Nurse Assessor / Functional Assessor – Hybrid – Frimley
£37,500 - £40,000 + £2,000 approval bonus + performance bonus + benefits
Use your clinical skills - without shifts, weekends, or hands-on care. We’re recruiting Registered Nurses and other registered healthcare professionals for a hybrid Functional Assessor role based in Frimley. This role is open to Nurses (RGN / RMN / RNLD), Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Paramedics, and Pharmacists. This is a full-time or part-time, Monday–Friday role offering predictable hours, structured work, and a genuine alternative to hands-on clinical or shift-based roles.
You’ll work in a supportive, structured assessment environment with pre-booked appointments, long consultation times, and full paid training. There’s no treatment, no prescribing, and no manual handling — just assessment, clinical reasoning, and report writing. You’ll split your time between home working and the local Frimley assessment centre (typically 2 days per week onsite).
