**Inspection Officer**

**Permanent - 37 hours per week**

**Salary - £26,421- £30,296 per annum**

**County Hall, Dorchester, combined with home-working**

**What’s in it for you**:
We are currently in the process of expanding our Revenues and Benefits Service (following the transfer of the workloads from the former East Dorset and North Dorset areas) and are looking to recruit an additional person to join the Compliance Team. The post is a full-time, permanent role working in a small dedicated team.
Dorset Council is a young organisation, created as a new unitary council in April 2019 and this is a great opportunity in a busy but friendly environment.

**What you can expect to be doing**:
The team currently has four Revenues Inspectors and we are looking to increase capacity in this area. You will be expected to travel extensively throughout the Dorset Council area, visiting domestic and commercial premises and undertaking property inspections in accordance with the council’s inspection procedures.

**About you**:
The role will involve working with other teams and colleagues within the service as well as liaison with some other teams across the council.

You will handle a wide range of highly sensitive and confidential data and you will want to make a positive difference to the lives of Dorset residents.

**Contact details**:
**Dorset Council: A great place to work**

We’re passionate about making Dorset a great place to live, work and visit. Working for us should be no exception.

At Dorset Council we:

- provide more than 450 services to over 300,000 residents
- have ambitious aspirations
- are excited about our future
- care about Dorset and all the people who live here
- know that all roles make a difference and that our employees are key to our success

You will:

- have access to a range of employee benefits
- be part of an organisation that supports each other to grow and succeed
- have access to range of training opportunities which will help with your personal development and career progression

We are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer. We offer an interview to everyone who declares a disability and meets the essential criteria for the role.

We also look for applicants who share our commitment to our behaviours. We will ask you to evidence when you have demonstrated them as part of the selection process.

**Additional information**:
This post requires significant travel. You must have a vehicle (or transport we deem suitable) available for use as needed.

With hybrid working in place, you will be able to start work either from home or from the office, but there will be a significant requirement to visit customers in their own homes.

This role is UK based and we will need to establish your Right to Work as part of the appointment process.

We use generic job descriptions and person specifications. This means the job title on any attachments may differ from the job title in the advert. We may provide specific information in a context statement if relevant.
