PIP Functional Assessor – London | Open to Clinicians with Just 1 Year of Experience

£46,813 starting salary | £2,000 uplift on completion of training | 10% bonus | Total package potential £53,500+

Just one year post-registration? This role could transform your career. Most clinical roles at your stage pay Band 5 or equivalent. This one starts at £46,813 — with full training, no assessment experience required, and only 12 months post-registration experience needed to apply.

The Best Reasons to Apply

• A significant salary step up, early in your career. Starting at £46,813, rising to £48,813 after training, plus a 10% bonus — a total package over £53,500. For many nurses, paramedics, physios, OTs and pharmacists, that's a substantial increase on what you're earning now.
• Your life back. Monday to Friday, daytime hours. No nights, no weekends, no on-calls, no last-minute shift changes. Plan your evenings, weekends and holidays like everyone else.
• You stay a clinician. This is clinical work — assessment, clinical reasoning, evidence-based reporting. Your registration stays active, your CPD is supported, and clinical supervision and audit are built in.
• Structured training and a clear pathway. A comprehensive, fully paid training programme takes you from day one to accredited assessor — with mentorship throughout, and defined progression routes into senior assessor, audit, training and leadership roles.
• Work that matters. Your reports directly inform DWP decisions on the support people receive. It's responsible, meaningful work where your clinical judgement counts.
