Assessments are delivered via telephone, video or face‑to‑face, using secure digital systems and standardised clinical frameworks. You will review medical evidence, conduct structured clinical conversations and produce clear, objective and evidence‑based written reports. These reports directly support formal disability benefit decision‑making. There is no hands‑on treatment, no prescribing and no manual handling. All appointments are pre‑booked, with sufficient time allocated for each assessment. There is no diary management or scheduling responsibility.

An approval bonus of £1,000 to £2,000 is available, alongside an annual performance bonus of up to 10 percent. Benefits include 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, pro‑rata for part‑time staff, with the option to buy or sell leave.
