This is a physically demanding role and will involve significant periods of walking considerable distances as well as working outdoors during varied weather conditions. The operations of the team range across a number of functions beyond street-based delivery. The team also delivers workshops in schools to both primary and secondary pupils.

The public engagement element this role involves regularly coming into contact with people, some of whom may at times be challenging from time to time
