We’ve got an exciting opportunity available for talented individuals to join our workforce - perhaps this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for? Read on to find out more…

Nottingham City Council is known for inclusivity and innovation, and we are continually working around the clock to deliver services for Nottingham’s citizens, visitors and investors.

Our aspiration is to make Nottingham a Great City, but to do this we need to be a Great Council, provide Great Services and recruit and develop a Great Workforce.

We will value your contributions, promote flexible and modern ways of working, will double your monthly pension contributions, offer a very generous 25-32 days holiday package each year (exclusive of public bank holidays and dependent on length of service) and give you the option to purchase up to 28 days additional holiday tax-free!

Nottingham City Council is committed to recruiting a talented workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We are a fair and inclusive employer and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and with different abilities. We recruit for diversity and value difference.

We particularly want to hear from you if you are from the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic community, identify within the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender community (LGBT) and if you are Disabled - these groups of people are underrepresented in our workforce, and we’d like to reflect our local population more through our recruitment processes.

We have always been open to flexible working and the COVID-19 pandemic provided us with some new options to work in a completely different way. We welcome a conversation about flexible working at the point of interview.

Day to day activities include the processing of applications made under the Licensing Act 2003, Gambling Act 2005, Local Government (miscellaneous provisions) Acts 1976 & 1982, Animal Welface Act 2018 and Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 and where required to do so arrange hearings, produce legal hearing notices and reports.

A working awareness, knowledge and understanding of Local Authority Licensing legislation, its application and processes.
Able to use Licensing legislation to support enforcement.
To have dealt with customers within a regulatory environment to promote legal requirements and good practice.
Able to plan and manage own workload to meet legislative and corporate deadlines.
