**You’ll Need**:

- Excellent communication and problem-solving skills to work directly with developers, contractors and our engineers.
- A full UK driving licence and the ability to work both in the office and on-site.

**If you're ready to play a key role in ensuring safe, high-quality highways and keeping developers on the right road - we want to hear from you.**

**The Council is committed to investing in the talent and wellbeing of our staff and can offer a generous annual leave allowance, access to the Local Government Pension Scheme, comprehensive Health & Wellbeing initiatives and a reward package which recognises your contribution. We can offer flexible working practices, community engagement and volunteer activities and, as part of our commitment to you, promote continuous Learning & Development. In addition we also offer a growing range of discounts, rewards and savings.

This role is suitable as a job sharing position.

Hybrid working arrangements are available for this role. Each role at CYC is different and your working arrangements will be determined based on the requirements of the role and in collaboration with you and your needs as part of the recruitment process. Your contractual location will be the designated council office for your team.
