Environmental Health Officer/Technical Officer
To undertake a range of Environmental Health duties (specialising as directed) within Private Sector Housing to bring about improvements to housing conditions and to secure a healthy and safe environment. This is achieved through advice, investigation of complaints, education and enforcement of statutory provisions.
The Team
Private Sector Housing is committed to improving the condition and standards in the private rented housing stock via advice, engagement and enforcement. The Team consists of a mixture of Senior EHOs, EHOs and Technical Officers, some of whom have been recruited fairly recently. We look forward to welcoming a new temporary member of our team.
Benefits
We are a workplace that supports flexibility and employee wellbeing in the way we work, whilst providing the best service for our customers. Hybrid team and service working arrangements are designed to support both employee work life balance and team collaboration whilst prioritising customer needs. Subject to the above we will support individuals to achieve a balance between work and home, and to take advantage of the flexibility available wherever possible while meeting organisational needs.
Hybrid working options would be part of your individual working arrangements alongside any personal preference agreed with your manager in advance of working with us.
Requirements
The Council’s HMO Additional Licensing Scheme finishes early next year. We have a backlog of licences to be issued as we were unable to carry out routine inspections during the Covid restrictions. We therefore need extra support to carry out HMO inspections to enable us to issue the licences before the end of the scheme.
