Our benefits

You can also see our full list of employee benefits on our careers site here: Why you should work for us | West Northamptonshire Council.

About the role

West Northamptonshire is a place of ambition and opportunity with a strong focus on working with our many different communities. At the heart of our vision to make West Northants a great place to live, work, visit and thrive, is a clear commitment to improving health, preventing ill-health and reducing inequalities.

We are seeking to appoint a Housing Enforcement Manager to lead our successful Housing Enforcement Team, working not just on current processes but also being pivotal in redesigning our responses in line with the Renters Rights Act 2025. Whilst your focus will be on rented properties across private and social rented sectors, you will be expected to work closely with the Housing Regulation Manager who supported the licensed property activities.

The Team have been turning heads and getting results in ensuring that the Private Rented Sector is providing safe and sustainable accommodation, unsafe and unlicensed properties are brought back into compliance, and that those who seek to benefit from criminal, rogue and irresponsible behaviours are dealt with in line with the Council’s enforcement regime

What will you be doing?

Working across the Housing Enforcement functions, you lead the team of Housing Enforcement Officers who undertake inspections using the Housing Health & Safety Rating System (HHSRS) to identify disrepair, other non-compliance with local and statutory requirements and breaches of management standards. Where necessary, you support action to ensure compliance. Great communication skills are key, as you will be working with several key partners, including the Police, Fire and Rescue, Immigration, HMRC and others, to ensure residents are safeguarded and afforded safe accommodation.

This role offers hybrid-working, 2 days working from home and 3 days out across West Northants. For this reason, a UK driving license and access to a vehicle are essential.

About you

This is a rare chance to step into a pivotal role where your expertise will directly shape housing standards and make a lasting difference to communities.

We’re looking for a high-calibre professional who brings both technical excellence and the drive to lead change in a challenging and rewarding environment.

You’ll already be a recognised expert in your field, with the confidence and credibility to operate at a senior level. You will have:

A relevant degree or extensive, hands-on experience in Private Sector Housing enforcement and regulation
A management qualification or a strong track record of leading teams, driving performance, and embedding change
Certification in applying the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS)
In-depth knowledge of the Housing Act 2004, HHSRS, and regulatory enforcement powers relating to HMOs and private sector housing
Proven experience building and progressing complex enforcement cases through to First-tier Tribunal or Magistrates’ Court
Strong understanding of the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 and its real-world application

This isn’t just another enforcement role — it’s an opportunity to:

Take ownership of complex, high-impact cases
Influence standards across the private rented sector
Play a key role in protecting vulnerable residents
Lead and inspire change in a service that truly matters

We’re looking for someone who combines expertise with purpose:

Confident, decisive, and comfortable operating in a demanding regulatory environment
Passionate about raising standards and making a visible difference
Committed to ensuring every resident has access to safe, secure, and sustainable homes
