About the role

Gloucester City Council is an ambitious Local Authority driving the City’s transformation. It has an established culture of collaborative working and engagement with partners that makes it a supportive and dynamic working environment. The Council is focused on delivering the best possible outcomes for its residents and communities, placing people at the heart of everything we do.

Do you want to join a friendly, multi-skilled enforcement service dedicated to improving housing conditions, reducing health inequalities, and finding innovative solutions to the challenges facing the housing sector?

The enforcement and regulation team draws on their housing, planning, public health, and environmental health knowledge, along with creativity, to deliver successful outcomes to improve the lives of Gloucester’s residents, while remaining dedicated to the council's priorities and values.

You will have excellent organizational, communication, and mediation skills working with a diverse range of stakeholders, focusing on delivering the aims of the role and organization.

You should be able to demonstrate an understanding and knowledge of the housing legislative and regulatory framework and the current issues the housing sector is facing. Ideally, you will have experience in a local authority housing enforcement environment or grant delivery team, but we welcome applications from candidates who can demonstrate the key transferable skills, experiences, and behavioral attributes set out in the job profile to deliver the requirements of the role.
