Cardiff, United Kingdom Cardiff Council Full time

**About The Service**
Cardiff is growing faster than any other major city in the UK outside of London and is projected to grow more than every other local authority in Wales combined. Cardiff Council’s Transport White Paper lays out an ambitious 10-year plan to tackle the climate emergency, reduce congestion and improve air quality in the Welsh capital. The Council is working with our regional partners, Welsh Government and Transport for Wales to make sure that the right transport infrastructure is in place to provide real choices for people travelling into Cardiff from the wider region. Control of temporary uses of the public highway and the management and delivery of the highway licencing and inspection function as the City grows will be critical to the successful delivery of the plans. This is a superb opportunity to be at the heart of one of the most exciting and dynamic economies in the UK at an exciting time in the City’s development and changing how people move around our growing city.

**About the job**
As a section leader officer, you’ll be responsible for the technical approval of all submissions for roads proposed for adoption under Section 38 and Section 278 of the Highways Act in order to ensure that they comply with the Council’s Technical Standards. As and when appropriate this will involve liaison and consultation with other Service Areas within the Council and relevant teams within your own Service Area. Following technical approval, you will issue instructions to the Council’s Legal Section to prepare the agreements - which will include calculation of appropriate bond sums, fees, and commuted maintenance sums. In due course you will issue Substantial Completion and Final Certificates and arrange for the Council’s Adopted Highway record to be updated in due course. You will also produce Officer Decision Reports for sign off by your Operational Manager in order to secure the necessary authority required under the Council’s constitution to enable Legal to complete agreements, and also instruct Legal to issue Notices under Sections 219/220 of the Highways Act (the Advance Payments Code).
