About this role
Paramedic Functional Assessor – PIP
Southampton - SO14 0AL
Starting Salary
£40,000
Are you a Registered Paramedic looking to move away from shift work and frontline pressures while still using your clinical expertise? This is a fantastic opportunity to transition into a structured, rewarding role where your skills make a real difference to people’s lives every day.
As a Paramedic Functional Assessor hybrid to Southampton, you will use your clinical knowledge in a new way—carrying out structured assessments that help understand how a person’s health condition or disability impacts their daily life. This is a role that offers genuine work-life balance, professional development, and the chance to build a long-term career in a supportive environment.
The Role
Working in a hybrid model from the Southampton Centre and home, you will conduct assessments via face-to-face, telephone, or video consultations. You will gather information, review medical evidence, and produce detailed, objective reports to support decision-making.
Key responsibilities include
Conducting structured functional assessments for individuals applying for PIP
Exploring how physical, mental health, or cognitive conditions affect daily living
Reviewing medical evidence and supporting documentation
Producing clear, accurate, and evidence-based clinical reports
Applying professional judgement while working within clinical and quality guidelines
This role does not involve diagnosing, treating, or making benefit decisions. Your focus is on delivering fair, impartial, and high-quality assessments.
What’s on Offer
Starting salary of £40,000
Monday to Friday working hours – no nights, weekends, or bank holidays
Hybrid working model (clinic and home-based)
25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
Company pension scheme
Ongoing CPD and career development opportunities
Supportive clinical environment with structured progression
Training
You will receive a comprehensive training programme (minimum 9 weeks, with additional support if required) to ensure you feel confident and fully prepared in your new role. This includes hands-on learning, mentoring, and continuous professional development.
Why Make the Move?
This is an ideal opportunity to step away from emergency response and into a role that offers stability, autonomy, and purpose. You will still make a meaningful impact, but in a way that supports both your career and your wellbeing.
