JOIN MERTON COUNCIL’S HOUSING ENFORCEMENT TEAM AND HELP SHAPE OUR NEW SERVICE!
Are you ready for a change? Looking for a challenge? Then look no further! Merton are recruiting to several posts within Housing Enforcement including an entirely new team to manage the introduction of Landlord Licensing!
Whilst most private landlords provide quality accommodation to our residents, there are some landlords who do not. As part of our ongoing commitment to our residents in private sector housing (PSH) the Council confirmed landlord licensing in several of the worst affected wards in the borough.
We want to hear from motivated, driven, flexible professionals who have the skills and experience to work collaboratively with a range of partners to make a difference for the residents of Merton.
Enforcement Officers (PSH) x2 (New)
Salary/Grade: ME13- £42,795 to £45,834 per annum inclusive +Essential Car Allowance
As a new team of Enforcement Officers, you will be enthusiastic and proactive individuals with skills, knowledge and understanding of licensing and enforcement in private sector housing or similar regulatory compliance processes. You will be able to comfortably scrutinize information from a range of sources to support the enforcement activities of the team; undertaking all duties associated with identifying and issuing property licences. Ideally, we are looking for a chartered member of an appropriate Environmental Health related professional organisation (e.g. Chartered Institute of Environmental Health), but if you are still working towards this, and have suitable experience, we'd still love to hear from you.
What you can expect from us
- A competitive salary depending on qualifications and experience.
- Hybrid working to help you achieve a greater work/life balance, including a 35-hour working week.

- Borough-wide Parking Permit
