Join One of the UK’s Most Award-Winning Public Realm Teams
Hackney’s Markets, Shop Fronts &amp; Street Trading Service has become one of the most celebrated local authority teams in the country with 24 national awards in seven years, pioneering digital licensing, leading London-wide reforms, and launching some of the boldest public-realm projects in the UK.
We keep Hackney’s streets vibrant, safe and buzzing from bustling restaurant terraces to beautifully managed shopfronts, thriving al fresco dining spaces, London’s first Zero Plastic Markets, and now the introduction of licensed A-boards, Business Parklets, and expanded Al fresco dining zones and street eateries.
Now we’re growing. We’re looking for two brilliant Shop Fronts Service Officers who want to be part of something genuinely special: people who thrive in fast-paced public spaces, enjoy building relationships with businesses, and want to shape how one of London’s most dynamic boroughs looks, feels, and trades.

As a Shop Front Services Officer, you’ll be the friendly, knowledgeable and authoritative presence on Hackney’s high streets, helping businesses thrive while ensuring our public spaces remain safe, inclusive and beautifully managed.
You will:

<li>Happy balancing advisory support with firm, clear enforcement</li>
<li>Organised, digitally confident and able to manage your own workload</li>
<li>Excited to help shape the future of Hackney’s streets</li>
</ul>
Experience in licensing, enforcement, business engagement, retail, hospitality, markets, public realm or similar environments is welcome but attitude, judgement, values and presence matter most.
You’re a trusted presence in public space, a relationship-builder, and a driver of positive outcomes.
You will bring:
<ul>
<li>Proven frontline or operational leadership experience, ideally in public services, markets, retail, events, hospitality, or enforcement&nbsp;</li>
