The Community Safety Enforcement Team provide vital work to ensure that South Derbyshire is a safe and secure place to live. The Team is at the front line of protecting and enhancing our local communities to ensure that incidents of environmental crime such as fly tipping, dog fouling, littering and antisocial behaviour are reduced. The Team investigates complaints and provides a visible presence on the streets to deter offences.

As a Community Safety Enforcement Officer, you will be getting out into the community to make a real difference by enforcing environmental law and influencing behaviour. You will undertake investigations into complaints and take legal action against offenders. You will also take a proactive role in encouraging members of our local community to comply with environmental laws. This will include providing a high visibility uniform presence in local streets and parks and by actively involving yourself with these communities.

This position within the Team is being funded by the Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire under the Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) Hotspot Response Pilot. The work will have a particular emphasis on providing a visible presence in areas of relatively high anti-social behaviour; supporting neighbourhood policing; clamping down on drug dealing and anti-social behaviour and dealing with rural crime.

This is a challenging but very rewarding job requiring someone who is a really good communicator and able to engage with and influence all sorts of members of our community. As a key part of the role is law enforcement, the candidate must also be capable of following procedures and being firm but fair. You must have a full driving licence and be willing to work changeable hours during the week and occasional weekends. The post is subject to medical and DBS clearance.
