The borough of Calderdale is situated in West Yorkshire and is nestled in the South Pennines. It is an area of rich cultural heritage, impressive architecture, stunning landscapes and charming towns and villages. With excellent road and rail links, and being within easy reach of Leeds and Manchester, Calderdale is a great place to live, work, and visit.

Calderdale has a vision for 2024 as a place where you can realise your potential whoever you are.

Calderdale Council has relatively recently completed a fundamental cross-council review of enforcement and is proceeding to implement a holistic problem-solving approach based on engagement, education, and enforcement in order to deliver better outcomes for communities.

Under the guidance of a single Service Lead, this new approach has brought together many of the Council services that include enforcement as part of their statutory and non-statutory duties.

We’re looking for a highly motivated individual who is ideally fully qualified and/or has recent demonstrable experience of working in Housing and/or Environmental Protection.

Applications will be accepted from an individual who is keen to start on the career pathway to becoming an Environmental Health Practitioner who meets our requirements.

You will be responsible for day-to-day delivery of Calderdale Council’s Environmental Health functions, working alongside a team of professional and technical staff.

As part of the wider Community Protection Team, you will be working alongside officers who have responsibility for other elements of the new enforcement approach.

You will therefore help to provide resilience and inter-operability across several regulatory activities.

It is critical that the successful applicant will be able to show an aptitude for this type of work and ideally have a high level of competence and experience in Environmental Health duties. Close working with statutory, voluntary, and community sector partners is seen as a must for this role.

This is a great opportunity for a motivated and forward-thinking individual who thrives in working as part of a team environment, and who is committed to driving the service forward in challenging times.

If you are looking for unique opportunities to gain further experience and knowledge in Environmental Health as well as the wider enforcement agenda such as Animal Health & Welfare, Pollution, Licensing, Anti-social Behaviour and Community Safety, then you are looking in the right place.

For an informal chat about these posts, please contact Dave Dunbar, Principal Environmental Health Officer on (01422) 392330.

Interviews: week commencing Monday 10th March 2023

On 30 January 2019, the Council declared a climate emergency in a bold move to step up its action to tackle climate change.

Calderdale Council embraces the positive benefits of a diverse workforce, and we are committed to providing an environment that is inclusive.

We reserve the right to close vacancies prior to the advertised closing date, an early submission is advised.
