United Kingdom Huntingdonshire District Council Full time

Huntingdonshire District Council (HDC) is passionate about providing high-quality services to our communities, residents and businesses. We are an innovative and forward-thinking local authority whose residents are at the heart of our decision-making.
We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, flexible and diligent Enforcement Officer to assist the Enforcement Team in continuing to deliver a high-quality Enforcement Service within Huntingdonshire.
Come and join our friendly and busy planning team where you will play a pivotal role in shaping the sustainable development of our community. In this challenging and rewarding position, you will be responsible for ensuring compliance with planning laws and regulations, investigating alleged breaches, and taking appropriate enforcement action.
You’ll be responsible for scrutinising site histories and plans, carrying out site investigations, dealing with complainants and developers, making reasoned assessments, taking legal action when appropriate and communicating decisions to the parties concerned.
With a working knowledge of Town and Country Planning, carrying out investigations in a relevant enforcement regime or other relevant area of work, you will use your excellent communication skills to assimilate information impartially in a variety of situations and to make reasoned judgements and recommendations. With the ability to research planning site histories to identify breaches in planning control, you will carry out investigations on building sites, including working on ladders and scaffolding and in uneven ground conditions. Above all, we want to recruit someone who is committed, enthusiastic, willing to learn and give something back to their local community. For many of our roles (and where it is possible) we are currently working remotely and anticipate in the future returning to a hybrid office model on a flexible basis. This will still include work-from-home and flexi-time opportunities in order to provide a good work-life balance whilst still ensuring that teams benefit from in-person interaction. Some third-party websites may have different dates. Please refer to the HDC website for the official closing date to ensure you do not miss out on applying.
As an employer who values diversity of thought, we seek to employ candidates from a range of backgrounds in order to make our organisation more innovative. We are seeking candidates who are looking for their next career opportunity and are supportive employers, enabling our staff to work in an environment that produces high standards of work in an employee-led environment.
Equality, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of our recruitment and along with our values we are committed to creating an inclusive working environment, where diversity is valued and there is equality of opportunity. We therefore welcome applications from all sections of the community and we offer a range of benefits, including flexitime, to encourage a work-life balance.
