Review, develop and implement appropriate working methods and processing for the licensing team, including implementing agreed Action, Business and Services Plans.
Be a member of the departmental Management Team, assisting with Head of Environmental Health and Licensing in the overall management of the department including the setting and monitoring of targets and objectives for the department.

The role will be based within the wider environment Environmental Health Department, in modern office accommodation Horsham, West Sussex within easy reach of a range of direct railway and road links.

Owing to the front-line nature of the work, we operate a flexible working arrangement where officers can work from home for part of the week. However, it will be a requirement for you to work from our offices on a regular and frequent basis based on service delivery needs. Some out of hours working will also be necessary, which may include evenings and late night working on occasion.

About you:

To succeed as a Principal Licensing Officer, you’ll be detail-oriented and thorough in your approach to work. You’ll have proven experience and knowledge of working in a Licensing function with the ability to interpret applications against national guidance and judge accordingly. You’ll be able to lead on complex and technical licensing matters, be a key representative of the service, be able to work in partnership and engage with internal and external stakeholders, actively participate in the Safety Advisory Group (SAG) process and prepare for and present at licensing committee hearings and training seminars.

You will need to have excellent organisational and interpersonal skills with a sound grasp of IT. Your ability to problem-solve, adapt to competing priorities and confidentiality are also of high importance. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and disciplines, but preference will be given to experienced individuals with full licensing professional working practice, licensing practitioner qualifications and relevant specialisms within the said field.

For an informal discussion about this role please call Marc Rankin, Head of Environmental Health & Licensing on 01403215178
