Role Summary:
We are looking for an Occupational Health Advisor to join our team, providing services for a large, well‑established client based in Northampton (NN17). The role involves one day per week on‑site at this client location, with any other remaining days worked remotely. This position is open to part‑time hours (7.5 – 22.5 hours per week) and full time (37.5 hours per week). A permanent one‑day‑per‑week contract may be considered to accommodate the onsite work in NN17.
In this role, you will deliver health surveillance, assessments, and fitness‑for‑work advice, supporting the client's Occupational Health requirements and helping employees maintain their health and performance. The role includes a mixture of case management and health surveillance, with full days of case management being very unlikely. When managing cases, these will be around 45 minutes per case, giving a varied and manageable workload. While previous Occupational Health experience isn't required, you will need to be confident in physiotherapy or clinical skills, as training and support will be provided.
