Salary

£41,612.00 per annum

At Advo Health, we support people at key moments in their lives. As part of the Ascenti Group, we deliver clinically led, high-quality assessment services that help individuals understand how their health affects their everyday activities and independence.

Our work is grounded in fairness, compassion and clinical integrity. Every assessment you complete plays an important role in ensuring claimants feel listened to, treated respectfully and supported throughout their journey.

If you are a healthcare professional looking to step away from hands-on clinical pressures, without stepping away from purpose, this could be the next chapter in your career.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

Holding telephone, video or in-person consultations with claimants

Assessing a wide range of physical and mental health conditions

Applying clinical reasoning to understand how health impacts daily living

Using strong IT and written communication skills to listen and produce accurate, evidence-based reports at the same time

Working closely with your manager to support your development as a Functional Assessor
