Rugby Borough Council is dedicated to both Community and Colleague growth. With a focus on wellbeing and personal development, we offer a range of career opportunities where you can take pride in the positive changes you help create. Join an organisation committed to the success of one of the Country’s fastest-growing boroughs and the people who make it thrive.
About the role
Do you want to make a difference? You have an exciting opportunity to be part of our Regulatory Services section within the Environmental Health Team. You will be part of a team delivering a quality service on issues that are often complex and can have a negative impact on quality of life.
As part of the Environmental Health Team, you will also be involved in their wider activities including air quality. Environmental Health Officers and qualified Environmental Protection Officers will also be expected to deputise and support the management functions of the Environmental Health Team Leader.
About you
We are looking for a highly motivated professional (an Environmental Protection Officer or an Environmental Health Officer), who is skilled in the effective use of our powers under environmental protection, food safety and health and safety at work legislation.
Our outgoing officer brought valuable expertise in air quality, contaminated land and wider Environmental Health functions (including planning, licensing and LAPPC permits), and while we would ideally recruit a similarly qualified EHO, we appreciate the current market challenges. As such we’re also keen to hear from recent Environmental Health Graduates or EPOs who are working towards full EHP registration. If you’re passionate about environmental protection and keen to grow your career in a supportive and forward-thinking team, we’d love to hear from you.
A Full Driving license is required.
