Your responsibilities will include issuing Penalty Charge Notices, Fixed Penalty Notices and be involved in prosecutions.

Due to the nature of the job, you will be required to wear a uniform and will work mainly outdoors, in all weather, as you will be carrying out patrols on foot for most of the working day.

You will work 37 hours per week on a shift pattern of 4 days over 7, which includes Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.

There may also be a requirement to carry out some additional enforcement outside of the fixed core working hours (7am-8pm) for which overtime will be paid.
