**Community Safety Patrol Officers**:
**X2 Full time vacancies available**:
**Fixed term opportunities until 31**st** March 2025**:
**Salary £24,496 - £28,371**:
**Weymouth**:
**What’s in it for you**:
The Community Safety Accreditation scheme was established in Weymouth to assist the Council and Dorset Police in tackling anti-social behaviour through a range of proactive and reactive measures including the use of fixed penalty notices. The scheme focuses on Weymouth town centre with some additional surrounding areas. You will be part of the wider Community Safety Team, based at our Weymouth local area office.

You will undertake foot patrols in the town, both independently and as part of a team. You will provide a uniformed, visible presence and re-assurance in identified areas of Weymouth and have radio contact with Dorset Police and the Council's CCTV Control Room. You will be equipped with powers to tackle a range of antisocial behaviours and trained to support rough sleepers.

Each day has the potential to bring new challenges and to engage and assist a range of different people. Shift work is required which will include evening, weekend and Bank Holiday working.

You will be given full training and support and be provided with suitable equipment and uniform.

**What you can expect to be doing**:
The purpose of the role is to provide a high-visibility presence in areas of Weymouth experiencing anti-social behaviour. You will be involved in preventing and deterring behaviours such as anti-social drinking and aggressive begging, via a range of enforcement powers that will have been delegated to you by Dorset Police and Dorset Council.

The role will also include a supportive element where you will be required to work with a range of customers with complex issues. You will work closely alongside a variety of different agencies and partners including the Police, CCTV, Housing Services and the Community Mental Health Team.

There will be opportunities for you to develop your negotiating skills, learn how to use Police systems and build relationships with a range of individuals and organisations. This is an exciting and challenging role providing the opportunity to make a real difference to improve the look and feel of Weymouth town centre as well as changing the lives of vulnerable people.

**About you**:
You will be able to deal confidently with a range of people, sometimes in challenging situations, and be able to remain calm and professional at all times.

You will have sound organisational skills, be self-motivated and able to work on your own initiative within broad guidelines, both independently and as part of a team.

You will need good written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain requirements in a friendly, tactful and understandable way.

These posts require significant travel. You must have a vehicle (or transport we deem suitable) available for use as needed.

You will be required to work a variety of shifts covering days, evenings, weekends and bank holidays.

The role will be physically demanding with the requirement to spend the majority of the day patrolling on foot.
