We have a vacancy for a new Civil Enforcement Officer to assist in the effective and efficient management of both On-street and Off-street parking.
This exciting high-profile role will be working on a rota basis across the Borough with a team of officers ensuring that the public pay for the services they receive when using the Council’s car-parks and ensuring public safety is adhered to.

As you deal directly with the public, you must have excellent communication skills.
You will be required to work 37 hours per week, Monday to Sunday, including Bank Holidays on a rota basis, between the hours of 7.00 am and 9.00 pm so flexibility for the role is essential.
