Job description

Overview

Are you an Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) specialist and looking for a new, long term fixed term contract job opportunity? Are you a car driver with your own vehicle?

If so please read on! We are looking for an Anti Social Behaviour specialist to join one of our leading public sector housing clients on a full time (35 hours per week, Monday to Friday), FTC basis, covering maternity leave until the end of July 2026.

Your office will be Dartford in Kent (just 1 day each week, generally on a Tuesday with the whole team) but you will be covering a geographical patch around Sussex (e.g Crawley, Haywards Heath, Horsham & Brighton 1-2 days a week visiting schemes) so being a car driver with your own vehicle is essential. The rest of the week you will be working from home (1-2 days).

Responsibilities

• Lead on complex ASB cases, from initial report to resolution, including evidence collection, risk assessment, enforcement, and closure.
• Gather evidence effectively, prepare witness statements and legal packs for court cases, and attend ASB evictions.
• Use legislative tools such as Civil Injunctions, Community Protection Notices, and tenancy enforcement action to tackle serious ASB.
• Build strong partnerships with external organisations such as the Police, Local Stakeholders, Council Community Safety teams and tenancy fraud investigators.
• Ensure that victims and complainants are supported throughout the process, and that perpetrators are held accountable.
• Act as a designated safeguarding officer, responding to concerns involving children and adults at risk in line with local authority procedures.
• Complete referrals to relevant statutory agencies (Adult Social Care, Children's Services, MARAC, MAPPA, Prevent) and attend multi-agency meetings.
• Identify ASB hotspots and contribute to estate-based solutions such as target hardening, CCTV, and design-out-crime measures.

Requirements & Benefits

In return our client is looking to pay between GBP35,222 to GBP43,500 per annum for the right candidate. If you have strong ASB experience (ideally from a public sector client) then please apply online ASAP as our client is looking to conduct interviews before the end of September 2025.
