Job Details

Planning Enforcement Officer  

Carrington West’s dedicated Town and Country Planning Recruitment Team operate UK wide and we are delighted to be assisting our Local Authority client with their search for an Enforcement Officer to join a planning enforcement department in South London.  

The client is looking for a motivated and enthusiastic person, preferably with experience of working in planning enforcement to investigate breaches of planning control and to carry out relevant inspections and actions where required.  

The successful candidate will be expected to hit the ground running and preferably have demonstrable knowledge of current planning legislation and practice.   Knowledge of related legislation, including the Police and Criminal Evidence Act would also be beneficial. Other desirable criteria include: -
• excellent written and oral communication skills
• the ability to communicate effectively with wide range of stakeholders with a strong focus on customer service
• experience in preparing evidence for prosecutions and drafting and serving a wide range of notices
• excellent negotiation skills
• demonstrable experience in resolving planning disputes
• Ability to work under pressure to deadlines in sometimes challenging circumstances  

The client is looking for a person who has previous enforcement experience; whilst experience in working in a planning related environment will be expected, we consider that the ability to communicate clearly and work under pressure is more essential to this post than being a qualified planner.  

Rate - £30 per hour umbrella/ltd
