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.
