Our client has recently restructured their team in response to the emerging requirements in conjunction with Covid-19 and ensuring business compliance across the Borough. They need to add a suitably qualified and experienced Public Protection Officer to focus on carrying out Covid-19 H&S compliance checking and providing advice on outbreak control to organisations across the Borough.
At the moment they have a 2 year plan in place and would like to move quickly to offer a contract assignment as they look to quickly mobilise the team; the contract will be 3 months initially but is very likely to roll on for some time. There may even be scope for a permanent role if you were interested but there is no obligation, for now we are looking to fill this role on an hourly paid agency contract basis.
Given the scope of the requirements of this new team the role is likely to suit someone from an Enviro Health background who has specialised in Health and Safety and / or Food Safety enforcement work. Anyone who has taken specific Covid-19 related training would be favoured but those with a proven track record in service improvement and delivery would be strong candidates.
You will need to be EHRB registered as an Environmental Health Officer and you will need to be capable of carrying out enforcement proceedings. You will need to have your own car and insurance for work purposes (mileage will be paid).
The roles are based within the North / East London catchment area and whilst you may be able to perform some duties from home our client needs those who are happy to work in the office when required and happy to carry out work on the district.
We'd expect a pay rate in the region of £33-£38/hr depending on your level of experience. Contact us for more details including a full JD.
This is an urgent requirement and our client will consider those wanting to work part time hours.
