We have changed the reputation, not just of the Council, but of Hackney itself.

The challenges that have arisen over the last few years have intensified the need for action and we are determined to rebuild Hackney for, and with, our diverse communities.


Hackney Parking Services are often leading the way in the parking industry with the main focus on best practices and performance.

Hackney Council has managed to be the number one borough in Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) appeals for two years running.

Hackney was one of the first Councils in the country to implement School Streets and Ultra Low Emission Vehicle zones - all of which are enforced by the parking enforcement team.

Recently, the Council has brought in-house the parking enforcement operations after over two decades of the service being outsourced.

An amazing opportunity has arisen to recruit into brand new apprentice positions that will be pivotal in supporting the delivery of the newly insourced parking enforcement service and a great opportunity to learn new skills, experience and public sector enforcement.
