We are seeking a motivated and proactive Dilapidation Enforcement Officer to join our Environment and Regeneration Department and play a key role in helping to maintain and improve the appearance, safety and amenity of the City.
This varied role will involve dealing with dangerous structures, dilapidated and unsightly properties, using a combination of advice, negotiation and enforcement action to ensure buildings and land are brought back to an acceptable condition. You will be a key point of contact for property-related enforcement matters, liaising with owners, members of the public, emergency services, contractors, consultants and other agencies.
The post will also support the Council’s town planning functions, including reviewing planning applications, preparing reports and contributing to the Council’s wider Cleaner, Safer, Greener agenda. The successful candidate will have strong communication and organisational skills, the ability to interpret legislation and technical information, and the confidence to make informed decisions in a busy and varied working environment.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with an interest in property, planning, enforcement or regeneration to make a visible contribution to the City and support improvements that benefit residents, businesses and visitors.
