The Waste Disposal team are responsible for the management of over 100,000 tonnes of household waste collected from our residents and other activities across the city. We have a vacancy for an Operational Support Officer to join our small team, tasked with working with residents to encourage waste minimisation and recycling in the city.
The role of Streetpride Operational Support Officer is an office-based role, supporting our team by carrying out a range of duties. The duties include managing service requests, allocating work to our Waste Minimisation Officers, speaking to residents, taking card payments and general administration.
We may be biased, but there has never been a more exciting time to work in waste. Forthcoming changes to how local authorities collect waste, as well as increasing awareness of the impact our consumption of stuff has on the climate, means there is much to do! This is your opportunity to make a difference to the local community and environment.
Previous experience of general administration duties is essential, as is good computer literacy. If you have interest in this role and the relevant transferrable skills, we’d love to hear from you.
When applying, please use the supporting field on the application form to demonstrate to us how you meet each point in the person specification.
This is a permanent role. Job shares and secondments will be considered. We can offer some flexibility with working hours.
All employees will normally be appointed to the minimum of the grade for the job. For reasons connected with a particular need of the Council it may be appropriate, subject to approval, to appoint to a higher point in the pay grade.
Please be aware that where there are staff within the organisation who are 'at risk' of redundancy, requirements to redeploy to another suitable role will apply and take priority.
