Join the Front Line of Community Safety

Are you proactive, confident, and ready for a role where no two days are the same?

We are looking for a motivated Civil Enforcement Officer to join the local Council's Civil Enforcement team. You'll play a key role in helping the Council meet its responsibilities under the Traffic Management Act 2004 - keeping traffic flowing, ensuring fair parking, and supporting the local community.

This is an active, outdoor role where you'll patrol designated areas across Thanet, represent the Council professionally, and make a real difference every day.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Enforcing parking restrictions in line with legislation and local Traffic Regulation Orders
  • Issuing Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) where vehicles are parked in contravention
  • Collecting and recording clear evidence to support enforcement action
  • Carrying out daily checks of pay and display machines and reporting faults
  • Reporting damaged signs, faded lines, or missing road markings
  • Providing helpful, professional support to members of the public
  • Working alongside CCTV, Streetscene Enforcement and local police to share intelligence
  • Managing abandoned vehicle reports from investigation through to removal
  • Supporting joint enforcement operations when required
What We're Looking For
  • Basic knowledge of the Highway Code and relevant traffic legislation
  • Good understanding of the Thanet area
  • Strong communication and conflict management skills
  • Ability to remain calm and professional under pressure
  • Comfortable working independently and as part of a team
  • Willingness to work outdoors in all weather conditions
  • Physically fit and able to carry out patrol duties
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Previous experience in enforcement or a similar role is desirable but not essential
  • Stable Temp-to-Perm opportunity
  • Varied and active working environment
  • Opportunity to represent and support your local community
  • Immediate start available

If you are passionate about community safety and ready for a role where you can make a visible impact, we would love to hear from you.
