Highways Licensing Inspector WCC623675 (Westminster, LND, GB)

Job Details:

Salary range: £42,912 - £57,495 per annum. Salary negotiable depending upon experience.
Work location: Westminster City Hall, 64 Victoria Street, SW1E 6QP
Hours per week: 36
Contract type: Permanent
Closing date: 12 June 2026

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF GRACE’S PASSION AND DEDICATION

The Environment & Communities Directorate in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where dedicated people like Grace are using their skills and passion to progress environmental action in the heart of London.

It was at university where Grace first started campaigning for improved recycling facilities, water refill stations, and other eco-friendly initiatives. When she saw the real difference people could make when they came together, she knew she wanted to dedicate her career to community action for the planet.

When she joined us as Principal Engagement Officer, Climate Emergency, she quickly established herself as a passionate advocate for community outreach, engaging various stakeholders across Westminster in the social causes, impacts and solutions to climate change, air pollution, and biodiversity loss.

Grace became a driving force behind our first Citizens’ Climate Assembly, which took place across two weekends in the summer of 2023. Fifty residents were chosen at random from across our diverse communities to come together, learn about the climate emergency, and deliberate how we overcome the barriers to becoming a net zero city by 2040. The assembly produced several recommendations which have informed the evolution of our Climate Emergency Action Plan. Due to the success of this initiative, we’re holding more assemblies to continue community involvement in local decision-making.

To see the work of the Westminster Citizens’ Climate Assembly, click here.

The Role:

As a Highways Licensing Inspector, you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. Working within Highways Services, you will help maintain and enhance the reputation of the City Council as custodian of the Public Realm, ensuring the city’s streets remain safe for everyone who uses them.

You will deliver a specialist service, carrying out a range of skilled activities that support the effective management of the highway network. This will include inspecting highways and third-party works, monitoring environmental and traffic management arrangements linked to major construction projects, and overseeing the performance of the Council’s highways contractors to ensure work is carried out to the required standards.

Leading by example, you’ll model and embed the Council’s values and behaviours at every avenue, while also collaborating with colleagues, partners and other stakeholders. You’ll play an important part in helping to build a sustainable, highly effective organisation while also building our reputation as a successful council that always puts its residents first.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

You’ve worked in Highway maintenance before, where you’ve conducted inspections and overseen the licensing of temporary structures. You have a solid understanding of how traffic management works on-street and have supported large-scale developments while minimising disruption to the public highway in the past.

Confident working in a service delivery role, you can build strong relationships with stakeholders and resolve issues quickly. Managing risk, spotting improvement opportunities and keeping things moving are all part of how you work day to day.

Your technical knowledge is second to none. You’re familiar with key highways legislation such as the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, the Highways Act 1980 and relevant sections of the Road Traffic Act, as well as Westminster’s Code of Construction Practice. You’re also able to assess works on-site, understand technical issues in highway structures and make informed decisions about remedial actions.

You communicate clearly and can produce concise reports, briefing notes and responses to enquiries, including Freedom of Information requests, to tight deadlines. Comfortable using Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, you’re able to present information in a clear and structured way.

Building relationships comes naturally to you, and you’re able to work independently or as part of a team to resolve issues quickly. You’re also open to new approaches, committed to continuous improvement, and bring a strong sense of responsibility towards equality, diversity and creating an inclusive working environment.

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM

Housing and Commercial Partnerships in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where people use their vision and commitment to open doors for the next generations.

Nothing beats the feeling of helping someone find their passion. At Westminster City Council, our City Lions team helps young local people engage with culture, creativity and dreams. When they came across a lonely, isolated 16-year-old who called himself a failure, they knew what to do. They worked 1-2-1 to find the thing this boy really loved. YouTube, it turned out. But it’s impossible to turn that into a career, right? Wrong. A week later, he was enrolled on the British Film Institute film-making programme. It was the ultimate light-bulb moment. And it turned him into what he is today – a budding Spielberg with a world of opportunity at his feet.

The Role:

As a Senior Customer Resolution Officer, you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. Housing Services are high profile and vital to maintaining and enhancing the City Council’s reputation, and you’ll play an important role in supporting teams to deliver a better experience for residents.

You’ll work with key partners across Housing to support excellent customer service and help deliver the Fairer Westminster plan and objectives. A big part of the role will be improving and maintaining public perception and resident satisfaction, providing support across Housing Services so issues are handled well and services continue to improve.

You’ll maintain systems, processes and procedures within your area of specialism, contributing to regular monitoring and review so that the service remains effective and responsive. You’ll also need to be flexible and innovative in how you engage with residents and stakeholders, helping find practical ways to resolve issues and support better outcomes.

Working with people will be central to the role. You’ll liaise with internal and external colleagues, organisations and the public, managing and prioritising your own workload to meet deadlines and support service quality and continuity. You’ll also guide colleagues, sharing your knowledge and expertise to support development within the team and make sure key routines are followed.

You’ll work in line with relevant legal, regulatory, policy and procedural requirements, escalating concerns to management where needed. In everything you do, you’ll uphold and promote the Council’s equality and diversity policies, helping ensure residents and colleagues are treated fairly, respectfully and consistently.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

You’ll bring experience of working in a customer-facing team, providing a service to the public within prescribed timescales and in line with policy, procedures and service quality standards. You’ll be used to managing your own workload, keeping accurate records and making sure work is completed within the timescales needed to meet legislative requirements.

Strong customer care skills will be essential. You’ll be able to deal with residents politely, compassionately and flexibly, even when it is not possible to meet their desired outcome. With diplomacy, discretion and strong problem-solving skills, you’ll be confident explaining decisions clearly, handling objections and working towards positive outcomes wherever possible.

You’ll be able to quickly identify the key issues in complex situations, prioritise what needs to happen and gather the right information and evidence to support robust investigations. You’ll also be confident interpreting regulatory or jurisdictional issues and explaining complex advice in simple English, both in writing and verbally.

Building rapport with residents will come naturally to you. You’ll know how to listen carefully, ask the right questions and communicate in a way that feels fair and empathetic. At the same time, you’ll be able to manage a caseload, provide advice on complex issues and maintain high standards of accuracy and professionalism.

You’ll work well with others, building confidence and credibility with colleagues, staff and representatives. Supporting and mentoring colleagues will be part of how you work, and you’ll be open to feedback as a way to keep learning and improving.

You’ll be confident using computer packages, including spreadsheets and word processing tools, to extract, analyse and present information. Well organised and self-motivated, you’ll be able to prioritise tasks and projects, manage your time effectively and stay focused under pressure.

Above all, you’ll bring a strong commitment to equal opportunities, working confidently and compassionately with customers and colleagues from diverse backgrounds. With professional curiosity and a willingness to keep developing your knowledge of policy and legislation, you’ll help generate ideas, solve problems and support continuous service improvement for the benefit of Westminster’s communities.

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE POWER OF EMPOWERMENT

Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories, where passionate and expert professionals go above and beyond for their communities every day.

Natasha started her career in the NHS. She came to Westminster to do more for vulnerable people. When a family in her community reached out to her after their heating was cut off, Natasha took their situation seriously. Living in terrible conditions, and reaching desperation, they had nowhere else to turn. Natasha stepped in, holding the landlord to account and getting them to improve conditions for the family. These are the moments that make her the proudest. Now, she uses her expertise and experience to empower others.

The Role:

As Home Improvement Agency (HIA) Caseworker, you’ll make your own lasting contribution. You’ll play an integral role in delivering a specialist service that improves the lives of our most vulnerable residents.

Joining the HIA team, you’ll work alongside surveyors, handypersons and service support officers. We work together to make adaptations and improvements so that our disabled and older residents can live independently, comfortably and safely in their own homes. It’s a dynamic environment, with a strong sense of community.

Owning and managing a portfolio of casework, you’ll explore options for how to progress major adaptations that ultimately improve our residents’ lives. You’ll be the main point of contact, providing advice and guidance to residents, colleagues and managers to identify risk, support the resolution of issues and inform decision making. It can be challenging at times, but those challenges also bring learning opportunities.

This is meaningful, fulfilling work. It’s a great professional development opportunity too. With ongoing learning opportunities, you’ll build a varied skillset as well as expertise across a breadth of mandatory and discretionary grants.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

Preferably you’ll have experience of customer-facing casework management in Housing, Social Services, Health & Social Care, or a related field.

With strong interpersonal and communication skills you should be able to work with a range of different stakeholders including property owners and registered social landlords, while keeping residents’ needs at the heart of everything you do. You’ll bring the ability to work independently too, managing your own portfolio of cases.

We’re looking for you to be able to build trusted relationships, liaising between vulnerable individuals and service providers. And, with an understanding of the enhanced duty of care when delivering services to vulnerable people, you should be able to empathise and understand their needs other than those related to housing.

Ideally, you’ll also have a good working knowledge of Home Improvement Grant systems (Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act 1996) and how this applies to home adaptations and to be able to provide accurate advice on alternative sources of funding available to enable residents to undertake works required to their home.

What We Offer:

Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster.

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE CARRICK YARD INVESTMENT

The Finance Team in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories, where we go above and beyond for our residents – in all sorts of pioneering ways. Our work has the ability to have profound impact on residents’ lives. By being smart and courageous with the council’s finances means we can achieve more for our residents.

Take the Carrick Yard housing development in Luton Street. When a big international building firm couldn’t find a sales partner, we stepped in to create a joint venture partnership and underwrite any unsold units to protect our investment. Then when we felt a big banking partner would be overcharging the venture for financing the development, we decided to finance it ourselves. The result? 171 homes are now under construction, leading the redevelopment of the Church Street area, whilst the council is projecting a potential return on investment of almost 14% – far in excess of anything that can be achieved on cash deposits in current market conditions.

And why does this success matter? Because it allows us to invest even more in public services that are the lifeblood of our communities.

Please view the extraordinary story of the Carrick Yard Investment here.

The Role:

As a Governance Risk and Compliance Officer specialising in Information Security, you can make your own powerful contribution to people across Westminster. Joining our Cyber Security Team, you’ll take responsibility for the Council’s cyber security strategy across core IT, technology, customer and digital, providing expert advice and guidance to mitigate risk and maximise innovation.

Your day-to-day will be varied and dynamic, including everything from responding to user enquiries, to reviewing services and coordinating risk assessments. Putting user need at the heart of everything you do, you’ll help ensure the Council’s technology services meet appropriate security, governance and compliance standards. Where risks or incidents occur, you’ll recommend effective countermeasures, acting as a source of specialist knowledge to colleagues, specialists and stakeholders.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

An established professional with a degree in a relevant discipline, or equivalent industry experience, you’ll bring significant knowledge of modern technology security practices around services, infrastructure, hosting and platforms.

In a previous role — ideally within the public sector — you’ll have set service and development standards, giving you demonstrable experience of balancing client, organisational, and technical needs. Communicating risks and complex topics to senior and non-technical stakeholders will be second nature, and you’ll bring experience across threat modelling, audits and compliance checks, and business continuity planning.

On a personal level, you’ll be a true team player with excellent communication, problem solving and horizon scanning skills. This is a fantastic opportunity to join an innovative, supportive team delivering technology that directly improves the lives of people and communities across Westminster, and to supercharge your career in the process.

What We Offer:

Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster.

Help Shape Hampshire's Future

We’re excited to offer a fantastic opportunity to join Hampshire County Council’s Spatial Strategy & Insights (S106) Team. This role offers the chance to play a key part in supporting sustainable development across the county through the assessment, approval and monitoring of travel plans associated with new development, helping to ensure that growth is planned and delivered in line with transport policy and planning obligations.

The Role:

You will play a key role in supporting the delivery of sustainable development in accordance with the Local Transport Plan. The role focuses on determining when travel plans are required as part of new development proposals, as well as the assessment, approval and monitoring of those travel plans once submitted by developers - thereby ensuring that obligations secured through Section 106 legal agreements are implemented effectively and in line with County Council requirements.

What you’ll do:

You’ll work closely with our Highways Development Control team to identify whether a travel plan is required when the County Council is consulted on new planning applications. Where travel plans are necessary, you’ll assess submissions from developers and consultants to ensure proposals are robust, appropriate and compliant with policy and guidance.

You’ll be responsible for approving travel plans and overseeing a caseload of development sites, ensuring that developers and housebuilders are meeting the commitments set out in their travel plans. The role also involves maintaining accurate records, managing monitoring and approval data, and contributing to continuous improvements in guidance, processes and ways of working through collaboration with other teams across the County Council.

What we’re looking for:

We’re looking for someone with strong analytical skills and the ability to manage a varied workload, balancing multiple workstreams and competing priorities. You will be confident working with technical and sometimes complex transport planning information, with the ability to assess data, apply professional judgement and maintain a high level of attention to detail.

You’ll also be an effective communicator, able to build positive working relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, both externally and across the County Council. A collaborative mindset, precision in handling data, and a proactive approach to problem solving will be key to success in this role.

Please note that interview shortlisting will be based on how clearly you demonstrate the essential (and where relevant, desirable) criteria in your application text – please refer to the candidate pack for further information on these.

Why join us?

Hampshire County Council is recognised nationally as one of the highest performing local authorities in the UK. A modern, forward-looking local authority, it offers a pleasant, supportive, and collaborative working environment.

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF GIRO’S PERSUASIVE POWERS

The Environment & City Management team in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. We love it when our work touches lives.

Take Stepping to the Beat, our 3k walk, jog or run for people with learning or physical disabilities or Autism, their families and carers. It’s a life-affirming, music-based event Coreen and Claudia are massively proud of – and they were keen for people to spread the word. So, imagine how thrilled they were when one of our residents, Giro, did just that. Advocating for people with disabilities at a planning meeting for transport in London, he was proudly wearing his event medal. And he decided to use it to encourage others. As he passed it around the room, Giro inspired lots more people with disabilities to get involved. Infectious enthusiasm goes a long way here.

Please view the extraordinary story of Giro’s Persuasive Powers here.

The Role:

As a Network Co-ordination Assistant in our high profile Strategic Transport & Connectivity Department you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. You’ll support the successful co-ordination and delivery of a number of interconnected services, work that will include processing Highways Licensing applications, raising invoices for rechargeable job orders, and invoicing utility companies for the permits they require.

One of your most important tasks will involve dealing with customer and stakeholder queries and complaints via email or over the telephone. We’ll also expect you to co-ordinate the statutory advertising of Traffic Orders, and support the development and review of Highways’ processes, systems and procedures. In addition, you’ll support the accident claims process, ensure monies due are invoiced for, received by the Council and reconciled correctly, and be responsible for monitoring and assisting with the recovery of debt.

Always ready to provide considered advice to internal and external colleagues, partners and customers, you’ll be committed to making an important contribution to the delivery of the Council’s objectives and priorities. You’ll also be dedicated to complying with all the relevant regulations including the requirements related to Equality and Diversity, Health and Safety, the Human Rights Act, the Freedom of Information Act, the Data Protection Act and the City Council’s procurement code.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

With well developed experience of customer and stakeholder engagement and support, you’ll be capable of using database systems and possess the communication and interpersonal skills necessary to deal with a wide range of queries, complaints and investigations.

A collaborative team worker but also able to work independently, you’ll possess excellent literacy and numeracy skills, be capable of planning, organising and prioritising your work, and producing it to the highest standards. A natural problem solver with the ability to identify and resolve issues at speed and to tight deadlines, you should also be methodical and have good attention to detail.

Some knowledge of income and debt recovery would be desirable, and although not essential, experience of working within highways, licensing, the wider construction industry or the compliance and regulatory sectors would be a bonus.

What We Offer:

At Westminster City Council, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive workplace and employer of choice. We encourage and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and aim to have a workforce that, at all levels, represents the communities we serve. We champion equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing and aim to create a workplace where everyone feels valued, has a sense of belonging and is empowered to be their best, that is the Westminster Way.

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF ARUNA’S DEDICATION TO TRANSFORMING LIVES

The Bi-Borough Legal Services Department at Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where people like Aruna work on projects that are helping to regenerate our borough and transform residents’ lives.

The Church Street Estate is an exciting, vibrant area and home to a diverse range of people, but has a number of issues that have led to social and economic exclusion for many. So a few years ago we decided to create a masterplan with the aim of improving the lives of everyone who lives and works here, while building on the unique qualities of the neighbourhood.

Our ambition is to improve the quality of life for everyone in the area, and we aim to do this by building 1,750 high quality homes, creating new green spaces and playgrounds, and providing services that will support the community’s health and wellbeing.

But such massive changes bring worry and conflict. Flats and houses will have to be demolished to make way for the new, and as many people have lived in their homes for decades they don’t want to say goodbye to cherished memories and familiar surroundings. Which is where Aruna and her team came into their own.

In the summer of 2024 a public inquiry was held into the compulsory purchase order made for Site A of Church Street, and it was her role to support the development team as they put forward the case for regeneration. Many of the people who objected were understandably afraid at the prospect of losing their homes, but Aruna was passionate in her defence of the project and stressed the fact that everyone in the area deserves better. And she was reassuring too, as she explained that compulsory powers would only be used as a last resort and anyone who is moved out of their current home has a range of options to remain in the area should they wish to, and the regenerated Church Street will offer unique opportunities, new jobs and an exciting feeling of optimism.

Aruna’s commitment to a positive world of renewal for our residents is Westminster City Council’s commitment too, and the Church Street of the future will hopefully be a blueprint for progressive regeneration throughout our city.

To learn more about our plans, visit churchstreet.org

The Role:

As a Solicitor in our customer-focused Commercial Property team, you can make your own powerful contribution to the residents of Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea. Putting residents’ needs and social value at the heart of our work, our friendly and experienced in-house legal team deliver high quality advice for all sorts of situations.

As such, this is a fantastic opportunity to get to grips with the Constitutions of both councils as you deliver advice on a wide range of commercial property-related matters including development and regeneration matters. Working quickly to come up with innovative solutions to complex routine and non-routine legal challenges, you will work with a wide range of client directorates and legal colleagues. This means that there will be plenty of scope to start with a routine caseload, before building up to more complex and technical advice, so if you’ve got the ambition to develop your expertise in a collaborative team.

With an overarching aim of helping both councils achieve their desired outcomes, we celebrate a busy yet dynamic environment in which we constantly ask ourselves how we can make things happen. Rather than declining a service, we prioritise challenges and find solutions. Join us, and you will use your knowledge of the law around buying and selling land and leases in the local authority sector to determine how commercial property leases will work from both a landlord and a tenant’s perspective. Getting to know your clients, you will explore their objectives and underpin their decision-making processes with clear legal advice, advising them on risk and helping them secure the best outcomes. This will often be done at speed, as they may need you to translate complex legal issues so that they can take decisions and give instructions quickly – so if you are looking for a constantly evolving challenge in which no two days will ever be the same.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

We champion a truly inclusive and supportive workplace in which colleagues are encouraged to be true to themselves. With more than 30 languages spoken in our team, and everyone being happy to jump into each other’s projects to help out whenever they’re needed, we promote a friendly workplace that’s quite unique. Furthermore, many of our colleagues take the opportunity to volunteer and support charity work, so there is a real sense of community here – so you will excel with us if you are a team-player with a collaborative mindset.

Our work is very much deadline orientated, so you will need to have exceptional time-management and prioritising skills, with the ability to think strategically when under pressure. It goes without saying that you will be a Qualified Solicitor, Licensed Conveyancer, Barrister, CLIEX Fellow or Associate, and you will be passionate about providing advice relating to the urban environment – this will ideally be underpinned by experience in commercial property, residential property or procurement and planning law.

Comfortable negotiating advantageous terms on behalf of both Councils, you will be capable of dealing with stakeholders at all levels, including Government Departments and other Local Authorities. As such, you will have fantastic verbal and written communication skills, you will be keen to mentor less experienced colleagues, and learn from those who are more knowledgeable. Specifically, you will be able to communicate legal issues effectively, so you will have a good knowledge of a wide range of commercial property challenges including lease renewals, security of tenure, easements, restrictive covenants, charging of assets and other transactional property-related issues. You will also have an understanding of a range of other areas such as the acquisition and disposal of commercial property with the capacity to draft commercial leases and asset management documents.

What We Offer:

Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster. Westminster City Council is one in which our communities are at the heart of our decision-making and help to determine the city’s future. By working directly with our communities and other partners, we can build a more inclusive city that celebrates our diverse communities, and where residents, workers and visitors from all backgrounds will feel welcome and safe. At Westminster City Council, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive workplace and employer of choice. We encourage and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and aim to have a workforce that, at all levels, represents the communities we serve. We champion equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing and aim to create a workplace where everyone feels valued, has a sense of belonging and is empowered to be their best, that is Our Westminster Way.

Through Westminster’s encouragement, as well as her own hard work and determination, she’s gained professional qualifications and taken on a series of increasingly stretching roles.

Today, we depend on Kate’s analytical powers to keep track of the condition of over 21,000 of our tenanted and leasehold homes – from roofs and windows to kitchens and bathrooms. Kate’s committed to achieving the Decent Homes Standard for all our tenants and a high standard for all our leaseholders. Her passion is numbers but, because she grew up in social housing, she also understands the human stories behind the data.

More than that she understands the disruption renewal work entails. So when an elderly resident’s family mentioned that their mother needed not just a new kitchen, but adaptations to her bathroom, Kate got right on to it. She co-ordinated with colleagues to assess the resident’s disability needs.

Kate’s worked hard to ensure our routine external and internal stock condition surveys pick up on repairs and health & safety issues at the same time. And, by recognising patterns in the data that’s gathered, she makes a vital contribution to forward planning for large-scale capital renewal works.

The Role:

As a Contracts & Governance Coordinator, you can make your own powerful contribution to people across Westminster. Working at the centre of strategic decision making, you’ll bring together stakeholders, contract managers and service providers to facilitate strong governance, clear accountability and high standards of performance across the Council’s Housing Directorate.

Ensuring that all stakeholders are appropriately represented and consulted in the strategic development of services, you’ll work across the full life-cycle of projects to establish partnership working, effective communication and problem solving between the Council and contractors.

Through proactive contract management and performance oversight, you’ll ensure compliance, mitigate risk and optimise value for money. Working alongside colleagues, you’ll help identify issues and opportunities for development — putting Westminster’s residents and communities at the heart of everything you do.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

An established professional with knowledge of legislation relevant to social housing, procurement and local governance frameworks, you’ll have a strong understanding of housing management, compliance and resident engagement.

Skilled in analysing performance data to monitor and improve contractor performance, you’ll have proven experience of managing and delivering projects with a focus on governance, risk management and service improvement.

On a personal level, you’ll be a true team player with excellent communication skills. Bringing the ability to build strong working relationships with a wide range of stakeholders at all levels of the Council and beyond, you’ll be organised, proactive and calm under pressure. This is a fantastic opportunity to join an innovative, forward-thinking team putting residents across Westminster first, and to supercharge your career in the process.

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF REGINA’S CARE, SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT

Westminster Adult Education Service (WAES) is a world of extraordinary stories, where inspirational people help our residents acquire new knowledge and skills on the hundreds of courses we offer. People like Regina, are dedicated to encouraging learners as they navigate the world of study and assisting them as they develop their careers.

Regina started at WAES as an Admissions Temp in 2008 through an agency for a 2-week booking. She excelled in this role and was asked to stay on a permanent basis. Regina loved this role as she was able to support and make a difference to people's lives.

Regina always wanted to support people, help them focus on their dreams and make a positive impact on their lives, so when the new posts of Career and Learning Development Officers came up, she didn’t think twice about embracing the challenges of the role. And now her days are spent welcoming new learners, guiding them on their journeys and pointing them in the direction of opportunities they might never have known about before. With the financial support of WAES, Regina is about to finish her Level 6 qualification in Careers Information Education Advice and Guidance.

Yassir is one of her many success stories – born in Sudan, his father’s work meant he moved to a different country every few years, until at the age of 12 he found himself in the UK. He stayed here for a while before moving back to Sudan, but then war broke out and he returned to the UK. He applied for a place at King’s College London and started his studies before falling seriously ill and was forced to drop out. When he recovered, Yassir didn’t know where his future lay but was single-minded in his determination to make something of his life, so he joined WAES and started studying with us, which is when he met Regina. She helped him with his university application, and he is now studying Molecular Genetics at Sheffield University.

Regina is at the heart of our commitment to the residents of Westminster, and her dedication and determination to seek out the best in people is what makes her such an inspiration to her colleagues and the learners she works with.

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF MOHAMMED’S INSPIRATIONAL JOURNEY

As the educational arm of Westminster City Council, Westminster Adult Education Service (WAES) is a world of extraordinary stories. From ESOL, English, Maths and Digital to Accounting, Community Learning, Childcare and Teaching and Languages to the Creative Arts and Culture, WAES’s courses offer unparalleled opportunities to grow, develop and acquire new skills. People like Mohammed work to inspire our residents to achieve their goals and enrich their lives through a huge range of stimulating and transformative learning experiences.

When he was 16 Mohammed came to London from a small town in the south of France and dived straight into the world of work. Once he’d found his feet and established himself, he decided he wanted to do some volunteering work and give something back to the community that had supported him on his first steps in the big city, so he approached WAES. They offered him a couple of hours a week for a few months, and he enjoyed it so much that when a temporary job in HR became available, he applied for it and was successful.

Fast forward a few years, and Mohammed is now working as a Funding and Compliance Manager, full time in the Management Information System department, and using his experience to encourage and inspire a new generation of Westminster citizens. As a member of the Kurdish community, he knows how difficult it can be to develop the skills, learnings and confidence to establish yourself in a new environment and is committed to sharing the story of his amazing journey, using it to illustrate how WAES can be a catalyst for positive growth and change.

Mohammed sees potential in everyone he meets, and is dedicated to encouraging people to grasp the opportunities they’re offered with both hands. And WAES is at the heart of Westminster’s commitment to helping everyone in our diverse communities to achieve their potential and transform their lives.

Customer Service Advisor WCC623891 (Westminster, LND, GB)

Job Details:

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF LISA’S DRIVE

Housing & Commercial Partnerships in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where reactive and passionate people are dedicated to enhancing services and creating real connections.

Take Lisa for example. The impact she’s had at her contact centre is remarkable. During Covid-19, Lisa focussed on increasing the coaching and support her staff received. This led to an interaction with a grieving resident who had lost his wife. Lisa’s training allowed the Customer Service Advisor to help the resident by opening up about their own experience. The conversation was so impactful that the resident even sent flowers to say thank you. It’s no surprise that Lisa runs a multi award-winning contact centre that’s now recognised across Europe.

The Role:

As a Contact Centre Advisor, you can make your own powerful contribution. When someone gets in touch with our Housing contact centre, you’ll be the friendly person they’re glad to chat with. You’ll be the one who listens carefully to their questions and provides the answers they need. If they’re confused, you’ll provide clarity. If they’re frustrated, you’ll focus on solving their problem. Put simply: whatever kind of day they’re having when they make contact, you’ll help to make it a better one.

Ours is a modern contact centre, so you’ll manage all kinds of contact – from phone to face-to-face, from email to social media and web chat. You’ll bring the same high standards of professionalism, empathy and courtesy to all channels and every interaction. Because you’re here for customers, whether they need to make a complaint, learn something, or connect with a service. Making the most of every opportunity to develop your knowledge and skills, you’ll do your best to be the one who resolves every enquiry first time.

If you have ideas about how we can improve our processes and respond better to the changing needs of our organisation and communities, you’ll find we’re more than willing to listen to you. What’s more, we’ll help you develop and grow as part of a dynamic team where ambition, diversity and creativity are celebrated.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

Experience of working in a housing management or public sector environment would definitely be a bonus. We’d certainly prefer you to demonstrate experience of delivering excellent customer service in a fast paced environment. The ability to deal patiently and calmly with challenging customers and resolve their concerns will be a real advantage.

As our contact centre is a target-driven environment, we’ll expect you to be able to prioritise your own workload productively. Good keyboard skills will equip you to keep clear and accurate records of conversations and outcomes, so we can help customers even better in the future.

What We Offer:

At Westminster City Council, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive workplace and employer of choice. We encourage and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and aim to have a workforce that, at all levels, represents the communities we serve. We champion equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing and aim to create a workplace where everyone feels valued, has a sense of belonging and is empowered to be their best, that is the Westminster Way.

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF ROCHELLE’S COMPASSION

Housing in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where kindness is key and community connection comes first.

Our people lead with empathy, always. Nobody lives those values better than Rochelle. Building on her experience from the frontline, she now consistently leads the team, thinking creatively and ensuring they go above and beyond for the local people they work with. Take Peter, a man struggling to settle into his new flat after a lifetime on the streets. Faced with loneliness, and a distrust of authority, he found it difficult to adjust to his new reality. Rochelle was not only his housing officer; she was a friendly face in good times and bad, and the support system he needed to get him back on his feet. The work she did with him was invaluable. And the change was almost immediate. Now she’s on a mission to change more lives, and to transform the way that anti-social behaviour is looked at throughout Westminster.

The Role:

As a Housing Team Manager, you can make your own powerful contribution to people across Westminster. Based at the heart of one of London’s most prestigious boroughs, you’ll lead a team of Housing Officers, motivating and inspiring them to deliver the best possible frontline housing services to our residents and communities.

A visible presence on our estates, you’ll act as an advocate and a source of support for residents, driving improvements, building trust and helping them navigate concerns. Putting residents at the heart of everything you do, you’ll engage effectively with them, fostering high levels of satisfaction and working to improve the housing services for the good of our vibrant, diverse communities. As such, you’ll often be required to tackle complex issues, using insight to shape targeted, preventative responses aligned to local need.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

An established professional with significant experience of housing management, you’ll have performance managed staff in a previous role. Bringing excellent knowledge of tenancy law and general tenancy management, you’ll hold, or be working towards, a relevant professional qualification.

On a personal level, you’ll be a true team player with excellent communication skills. As a leader you’ll be inspiring and motivating, taking a people-focused approach to everything you do. More than anything, you’ll be passionate about improving housing outcomes for our residents and communities. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a welcoming and supportive team, and to supercharge your career in the process.

About Us:

THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE POWER OF CREATIVE THERAPY

Adult Social Care in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories, where our passionate, caring and committed professionals do brilliant work every day.

Mr J’s mental health had declined in which he was admitted to hospital. While he was being looked after we grew concerned about his personal care and lack of routine, and quickly realised that he needed social care support, to support his independence and help prepare him for a successful return to the community he loved.

He was assigned to Ms T, one of our experienced Mental Health Social Workers, who took a strengths-based, person-centred approach to his recovery. From their very first meetings, she built a strong rapport with Mr J and discovered he had a real passion for painting. She encouraged his creativity by providing art supplies and linking him with art therapy, helping him use his imagination and love of colour to manage his emotions and rediscover a genuine sense of purpose and fulfilment.

Working together, Ms T and Mr J developed a personalised plan for his discharge. This included re-establishing daily routines, building support networks, and engaging with a range of creative outlets. And so he could receive support and encouragement when he was back home, she also helped to connect him with a number of local art and mental health groups.

By the time he left hospital, Mr J felt much more positive, confident and hopeful about the future. His journey illustrates how our amazing Social Workers transform lives for the better, and focusing on a person’s creativity, strengths and connection to their community can make a world of difference to their mental health.

The Role:

As Placement Monitoring Officer, you too can make a powerful contribution. You’ll be joining Westminster Adult Social Services - Adult Care team. We’re a diverse, inclusive team with an incredible passion for our work. As part of our team, you’ll manage a caseload of adults with complex needs, regularly ensuring that their service plans are fit-for-purpose.

You will monitor the health and social care aspects of all Support Plans, ensuring that a good standard of care is being provided. Our service users are in residential placements, nursing homes and supported living facilities. We seek to respect their independence, dignity and privacy. To help us do this, you’ll establish relationships that promote trust and confidence. You’ll give each service user clear information about their rights, responsibilities and work with them to agree on a support plan with measurable outcomes that maximises their independence. You’ll carry out the following: holistic assessments, care checklists, and reviews into finances. Risk assessments will reflect a person’s capacity to make decisions and acknowledge that they have the right to take risks. If you’re ever concerned about abuse of a vulnerable adult (even if they are not allocated to you), you will undertake Safeguarding Adults Investigations and report this in line with policy.

As well as carrying out assessment, you’ll prescribe equipment, assistive technology and minor adaptions to maximize an individual’s independence.

Another aspect of your role will be liaising with Social Services to ensure that placements meet service specifications. And, when possible, you’ll work in partnership with family and carers, staying sensitive to how these relationships may be complex. To make the most of opportunities within the community, you may reach out to other service providers and the voluntary sector.

You’ll be working with culturally diverse clients with a number of different needs – including physical disabilities and mental health issues. The diversity within our own team we see as our collective strength. Join us and do rewarding work every day.

Please refer to the Job Description for more information.

About You:

To be suitable for the role, you’ll already be familiar with the legislation, statutory guidance and best practice that underpins social work and care for adults and health. You can take laws and official guidance and turn them into clear, workable policies and day‑to‑day practice.

At times, you’ve taken a leading role in multi-agency teams to ensure effective service delivery.

As Law Enforcement Officer you will be at the forefront of our work to address environmental crime in the borough. Working in a dedicated team you will get to know the borough, its residents, businesses, parks and open spaces, housing estates and more. Our Law Enforcement Officers are our eyes and ears, and ambassadors for the council as we seek to drive down environmental crime and ASB. You will be working to a Senior Law Enforcement Officer and you will be responsible for ensuring compliance across a broad range of legislation within your given area(s) of responsibility.

You will also take pride and be accountable in ensuring that your service requests, members enquiries, management taskings etc are responded to in time, on time and at the highest level. You will also be responsible for ensuring that all your case work progresses in line with legal frameworks and timescales progressing cases to court where needed.

As a front-line officer, you should expect to be out on the ground undertaking foot patrols, both alone and with your colleagues, at least 80% of the time. This role requires experience in customer service and/or front-line service delivery, and we expect that all of our staff work to the highest standards of customer care and have an appetite to learn, evolve and develop both personally and professionally. In addition to ensuring that the day-to-day service needs are being met, you will also be exposed to a significant amount of joint working across other council services and with a range of partner organisations so experience and strength in collaborative working and/or partnership work is also desirable.

When you join us, you will receive a thorough training package where we will train you to become accredited under the Community Safety Accreditation Scheme (CSAS) and provide you with a broad portfolio of enforcement tools via relevant accreditation. You will also need to apply and clear NPPV2 vetting to get the CSAS accreditation.

As a front-line Law Enforcement Officer, you will work across a seven day a week, providing on street presence at the times, and in the locations, of most need. It’s a complex and challenging problem that requires teamwork, self-organisation, critical thinking and strong communication skills. If you could rise to that challenge, we’d like to talk to you.

Please note that submittal of CVs and/or letter of interest, without an accompanying personal statement which evidences your experience against the job description, will not be accepted.

We particularly welcome and encourage female applicants as this group is currently underrepresented in our service.

About the role

At Hammersmith & Fulham, we are ambitious in reforming the council to ensure this is a place for everybody. Within the Housing & Neighbourhoods department, we aim to be efficient in everything that we do. We believe our residents deserve a place that is safe, clean and green, with high quality services they can rely on.

An excellent opportunity has arisen for the right candidate to take on an “entry level” role within the Private Sector Housing team. Whilst the primary purpose of the role is to operate an effective triage of complaints from residents and members and allocate the investigation of these complaints to the team, you will participate in all of the varied workstreams carried out by the team.

You will be the first point of contact dealing with complaints about disrepair, licensing and unlawful eviction and harassment from tenants in the Private Rented Sector which is a vital role in demonstrating a caring and professional approach for the benefit of our customers.

You will gain an introduction to the wide variety of workstreams carried out by the team and offer reasonable assistance to our officers so they may discharge their duties professionally and efficiently.

The postholder will also be required to promote the service across the Council, as well as developing partnerships with colleagues in Homelessness, Housing Options, and Tenancy Sustainment services.

The post holder will be delivering a successful front line and residents- facing service and will be expected to attend the office during normal office hours and work through the day and respond to same day complaints received by the Councils Call Centre, the dedicated Private Sector Housing email box and for personal callers in reception at King Street.
