Summary

**THIS POST IS ONLY OPEN TO WILTSHIRE COUNCIL EMPLOYEES, WILTSHIRE CARE EXPERIENCED YOUNG PEOPLE, AGENCY WORKERS AND SOCIAL CARE STUDENTS ON PLACEMENT WITH WILTSHIRE COUNCIL**

Are you looking for a varied and rewarding role where you can help the council deliver key frontline services that protect the environment and impact every household in Wiltshire?

**LIVE**-WORK-**INNOVATE**

Waste services require a proactive and dynamic Waste Technical Officer to work within a small and dedicated team usually based at County Hall, Trowbridge. This is a full-time secondment for 6 months.

**About the role**

As a Waste Technical Officer, you will advise and assist the head of service, waste managers and other waste officers in the delivery of statutory waste management services at an operational level. The role is critical and integral to the monitoring and management of the council’s waste contracts, particularly those relating to waste collection and household recycling centres. You will also undertake key project work in support of service development.

You will be customer focused and will take responsibility for service complaint investigations through face-to-face meetings with customers, site visits to household recycling centres and on-site monitoring of waste collection activities. You will cover specific geographical locations, representing the council at local Area Boards and parish councils, liaising with councillors and other stakeholders. You will encourage participation in all waste services provided, ensuring the key objectives of increasing recycling and diverting waste from landfill are achieved. In helping the service promote good waste management practice this role will make a tangible contribution to the council’s aspirations to become carbon neutral by 2030.

**About you**

Proven customer relationship skills are an essential requirement given the high-profile nature of the services we provide. You will also be confident in the handling of data and in the use of Excel spreadsheets.

Previous experience of working in a service or compliance environment is essential, as is experience of undertaking project or research work.

We will look to you to have the ability to prioritise your own workload as well as be able to respond flexibly to the needs of the wider team and its competing priorities.

**Interviews will be held on the week commencing 31 July 2023.
