Job Details
Effective planning enforcement is key to maintain confidence in the Planning System. As such, we are seeking an additional enforcement officer to supplement our small planning enforcement team. Working alongside planning officers, conservation and other professionals, you will investigate a wide range of alleged breaches of planning control and make recommendations for their resolution. This may involve working with the council's legal team to take formal action and even seek prosecution through the courts.
You will be an excellent communicator, a skilled negotiator and be highly organised. You will also be able to travel around the district.
You will have a good understanding of planning law, or experience of law enforcement under other regulatory regimes. Appointment at the higher grade is subject to having suitable qualifications and experience.
Fixed term contract for 12 months
