We are looking for an experienced Environmental Health Officer to work within the Regulatory Services Team at Stafford Borough Council. If you would like to be part of a small, friendly but busy team carrying out Food Safety, Health and Safety, Environmental Pollution, Covid Secure, Public Health and Statutory Nuisance functions then this opportunity may be just the challenge you are looking for. Your role will be focussed on ensuring that excellent regulatory and advisory services are provided for all businesses and residents based within our Borough.

Stafford Borough is growing at an unprecedented rate and recent figures show more than £1.5 billion has been invested in, or planned for, the area.  So far there has been the delivery of a £100 million town centre retail scheme, expansion of the Army’s Beacon Barracks, a £10 million Council funded leisure scheme, and thousands of new jobs created.

This level of growth is set to continue with work underway on a £20 million Future High Street project for Stafford Town Centre, further investment at a new Business Park, a number of large housing schemes underway - and Stafford will be a hub station for HS2. We expect you to be actively involved in ensuring all these schemes meet appropriate regulatory standards

The Council is a forward thinking authority, planning to meet the key challenges of this unprecedented growth. We are therefore seeking enthusiastic and highly motivated professionals to join us!

You can look forward to working with a dedicated team of officers who strive to protect the community and support businesses.
