About this contract

A client of mine working for a local authority is looking to hire an Interim Environmental Protection Officer, specializing in noise, nuisance, pollution control and planning applications. The role is initially for the next 6 months due to a number of outstanding service requests, and a gap in their team due to a long standing permanent vacancy, but extension may be possible.

The role is full-time, 37 hours per week, but part-time can also be considered for the right candidate. Hybrid working is standard within this local authority, so it is expected that the candidate placed will be on site a minimum of 3 days each week depending on the workload.

A successful candidate will have experience in:

* Environmental Protection Act 1990

* Statutory nuisance investigations

* Noise complaint management

* Pollution control and enforcement

* Environmental Health or Environmental Protection within a local authority

* Environmental permitting and regulatory compliance

* Planning consultations and reviewing planning applications

* Private water supplies

Interviews are to be held within the next week and ideally the candidate will need to start asap.

For more information, please contact Megan. Details to be found on this job post
