As a Registration Investigation Team Adviser, you will assist with investigating concerns about doctors, physician associates and anaesthesia associates applying for entry on to the Medical Register.

You will also assess qualifications awarded outside of the UK to determine acceptability for applying for entry on to the medical register from doctors, physician associates and anaesthesia associates.

The main responsibilities for this role include:

• Managing a challenging caseload of complex applications for registration and/or a complex caseload of qualification assessments in line with legislation and GMC policy within published service level agreements.
