Do you want to help make the area of Gedling Borough Council a safer place for people to work, live and visit? If so, then this could be the job for you.

If you have a background in enforcement and compliance, the Council’s Licensing Team, based within the Public Protection Service, are seeking to recruit a Licensing Enforcement Officer.

This is an interesting and varied post which focusses on enforcement and compliance in relation to the Council’s various licensing functions including taxis, alcohol and entertainment, gambling, scrap metal, pavement licensing and street trading.

The postholder will have experience of dealing with complaints, carrying out investigations, writing detailed reports and statements, undertaking enforcement action and carrying out compliance checks across various areas of licensing.

Of particular importance is a flexible, proactive approach and a willingness for further self-development.  You will also be expected to work outside of normal office hours on a regular basis.

For a full breakdown of the requirements for the role (person specification) and further documents, please follow the link to our website to apply.

We offer excellent working conditions including a generous holiday entitlement, a comprehensive pension scheme and access to an Employee Assistance Programme, providing advice on a range of issues including financial and legal matters, and offering discounts on purchases from numerous retail outlets. We also offer employees significantly discounted gym membership at Gedling’s Leisure Centres.
