Bournemouth, United Kingdom BCP Council Full time

Job Introduction
**Role Purpose**

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council is looking for the right person who has an interest in sustainability and the environment to become part of our Strategic Waste team.

**Main Responsibilities**

You will play an active role in a multi skilled and motivated team as we manage and renew our contracts and waste infrastructure. You will help shape and implement our strategy and policies as we meet our carbon reduction goals.

An essential part of your job will be to build strong relationships with senior officers, external partners, internal colleagues and residents. You must be a confident communicator.

The role will require you to have an interest in the environment and wanting to be part of how we develop and manage our waste servicies. You will be involved in a wide range of duties from contract management, recycling initiatives, data analysis, environmental strategy, policy development and implementation, as well as supporting the in-house operation of recycling centres, waste transfer stations and our commercial waste business.

You will play an active role in the team in a supportive environment, and there will be plenty of opportunities to develop your skills, progress your career and contribute to the direction of the service as a whole.

This role offers a mixture of homeworking and utilising offices at our waste sites or Council buildings.

**About BCP Council**

BCP Council provides services to a diverse community of 400,000 residents and employs more than 5,000 people. Our area includes over 15 miles of beautiful world-renowned coastline. We can offer career defining roles to transform and improve services. By working with us, you can help deliver a vision of a thriving, word-class, prosperous and inclusive place for generations to come.

**Our Benefits**

We offer an excellent benefits package to colleagues. Find out more on our website

As a result of the creation of BCP Council in 2019, we are working on simplifying our terms and conditions of service and will be creating a single pay structure which is to be applicable for all employees. It is important to us that we offer benefits that our colleagues value as part of their total employment package and we are reviewing these to make sure we have it right. We have been in a process of collective bargaining since 2019 and have positively worked forward to reach an agreed position with the unions for the new contractual offer. This has taken longer than we hoped and therefore we are having to consider all alternative avenues available to enable us to remove inequality in the organisation as a result of bringing together 3 councils.

We are in the process of establishing a timescale for implementation, and all colleagues joining us will be included in these changes. We want to reassure everyone that whichever route is taken to reach the new terms and conditions, we can honour continuous service and there will not be any job reduction as a result of the implementation of Pay and Reward. If you have any questions at all about this process, please feel free to raise this with the hiring manager.
