The Private Sector Enforcement and Regulations (PSER) team has responsibility to the 34% of Lambeth’s housing stock which is in the Private rented sector (PRS).

This role would suit an individual who is pro-active, dynamic and resilient with relevant skills and experiences to work in our HMO Licensing Team or Enforcement Team.

You must have knowledge of current housing legislation as it relates to private sector housing and be able to take informal and formal enforcement action to remedy instances of disrepair etc. These actions include but are not limited to housing inspections, HHSRS inspections, serving Statutory Notices and attending court.
