Are you passionate about improving housing conditions in the private sector? Are you interested in taking on the challenge of joining a growing team of housing standards officers to regulate standards in over 13,000 private rented dwellings?

Preston City Council is looking for three committed, enthusiastic team players to further develop its regulatory housing team at a time of high service demands and rising expectations. In particular, the introduction of the Renters Rights Act 2025, the single biggest change in housing regulation to affect the rented sector in 40 years, means our team needs to grow, not only to enforce high standards but also to support both landlords and tenants to understand a range of new requirements.

You may be an experienced housing officer, with a strong background in housing regulation, including the full range of Housing Act enforcement functions, HMO licensing and the regulation of fire safety in high/medium rise buildings.

Alternatively, you may have relevant experience or qualifications in a housing or construction related field but wish to broaden your experience by working in a regulatory service.

As the post is career graded, successful candidates will be appointed on the salary point which reflects their qualifications and experience, but additional training and development will be provided in order to acquire the qualifications or experience to enable progression through the salary grades. Please ensure your application provides full details of your qualifications and any relevant experience

The housing standards team comprises of 6 front line officers, plus a dedicated HMO licensing officer, and we are looking for additional capacity to support the team, particularly in the current landscape of significant regulatory change coming from the Renters Rights Act. The authority is also consulting on the introduction of selective licensing in certain wards.

You must have excellent communication and time management skills and the ability to manage both a personal caseload and be able to work effectively with the rest of the team and also more widely with colleagues both inside and outside the Council.

As an employer we like to thank our employees for their hard work and commitment by giving them the opportunity to access a range of employee benefits including flexi time, hybrid working, a minimum of 25 days’ annual leave (plus Bank Holidays), family friendly policies, access to an Employee Assistance Programme, Local Government Pension Scheme, AVC’s, life assurance scheme, payment of professional fees, discounted parking, bus and rail fares, a cycle to work scheme and access to a healthcare insurance scheme.

International Sponsorship – this role is not open to international sponsorship.

For an informal discussion regarding the post please contact Nick Cryer, Housing Standards Team Manager by e mail - [email protected]

It is anticipated that in person interviews for the post will be held on or around 14th/15th July.
