Advert Text:

At Hammersmith & Fulham, we are ambitious in reforming the council to ensure this is a place for everybody. Within the Environment Department, we offer a wide range of services to help make the borough an attractive place, one that is safe, clean and green and one in which our residents take pride.

Our residents are clear. They want a borough that is clean and tidy, where they can feel safe, day and night, and where they can see the council protecting the law abiding and enforcing against those who are not.

The Community Safety Unit has benefited from significant investment to meet the needs of our residents and elected members.

As Law Enforcement Officer you will be at the forefront of our work to address environmental crime in the borough. Working in a dedicated team you will get to know the borough, its residents, businesses, parks and open spaces, housing estates and more. Our Law Enforcement Officers are our eyes and ears, and ambassadors for the council as we seek to drive down environmental crime and ASB.

You will be working to a Senior Law Enforcement Officer and you will be responsible for ensuring compliance across a broad range of legislation within your given area(s) of responsibility. You will also take pride and be accountable in ensuring that your service requests, members enquiries, management taskings etc are responded to in time, on time and at the highest level. You will also be responsible for ensuring that all your case work progresses in line with legal frameworks and timescales progressing cases to court where needed. As a front-line officer, you should expect to be out on the ground undertaking foot patrols, both alone and with your colleagues, at least 80% of the time.

This role requires experience in customer service and/or front-line service delivery, and we expect that all of our staff work to the highest standards of customer care and have an appetite to learn, evolve and develop both personally and professionally.

In addition to ensuring that the day-to-day service needs are being met, you will also be exposed to a significant amount of joint working across other council services and with a range of partner organisations so experience and strength in collaborative working and/or partnership work is also desirable.

When you join us, you will receive a thorough training package where we will train you to become accredited under the Community Safety Accreditation Scheme (CSAS) and provide you with a broad portfolio of enforcement tools via relevant accreditation. As a front-line Law Enforcement Officer, you will work across a seven day a week, 24hr shift pattern providing on street presence at the times, and in the locations, of most need.

It’s a complex and challenging problem that requires teamwork, self-organisation, critical thinking and strong communication skills. If you could rise to that challenge, we’d like to talk to you.

Our mission is to be the best council. To do this we need the best people to help build our vision. If you’re looking to develop your career in a fast-paced, professional environment whilst making a difference, then we look forward to hearing from you.
