At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by practical transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that's who we're doing it for – the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you'll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. It's all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.

We believe that by working smarter and focusing on strategically driven initiatives, we can grow the local economy and build resilience in our communities. The success of our vision depends on our fantastic employees and fostering the talent of the future. That is why we have this exciting opportunity for a Parking Maintenance Technician.

Your next role

In this role, you will play a key part in ensuring Swindon's parking facilities are safe, well-maintained and operating effectively. You will carry out planned and reactive maintenance on parking equipment, signage, pay machines, and related infrastructure across the borough.

You will have a strong background in practical, hands-on work and be confident in managing enquiries from members of the public politely and effectively when on site. You should also be able to remain calm under pressure and work safely and efficiently in a variety of environments.

A full UK driving licence is essential, as the role requires travelling to multiple locations daily.

Ideally, you will have experience working with parking equipment or in a maintenance-related field, although full training will be provided. Knowledge of Swindon and the surrounding area is beneficial, and you must be prepared for regular outdoor working in all weather conditions.

You must be fluent in the English language (as required by Part 7 of the Immigration Act "for the effective performance of a customer-facing role").

Your next package

Please see our Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.

As an employee, you will receive a diverse and exciting environment in which to work, encouraging creativity and innovation whilst recognising the need to support ongoing personal development and a flexible work life balance.

For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It's why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you'll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We'll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we'll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon together. And you'll be proud to say it was made better with you.
