Community Support Warden

Location: Derbyshire
Closing date: 06 July 2025

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY USING THE DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL WEBSITE, PLEASE SEE DETAILS BELOW.

Is your local environment important and do you have a passion for helping improve it?  Are healthy vibrant communities something that you would like to help create?  At Amber Valley we think so and we are looking for someone who shares our values and commitment to make a difference.  Our Community Support Wardens deal with a wide range of issues such as: 

  • Patrolling areas to deal with dog fouling, littering and other environmental offences
  • Investigating reports of fly-tipping, gathering evidence, taking witness statements and helping prosecute offenders.
  • Issuing of Fixed Penalty Notices for Envirocrimes
  • Investigating reports of flyposting and abandoned vehicles
  • Collecting stray dogs and taking to the Council’s kennels
  • Carrying out home visits for the waste and recycling service 

Although knowledge and experience are relevant, we are keen to hear from people who care about Amber Valley, have a flexible approach to work and can work well in a team or on their own.  This role requires someone who likes working outside and dealing with people in a range of situations; sometimes pressurised and confrontational.  If that sounds like you and you’re interested in joining our busy team then we would love to hear from you. 

In addition, we can offer: 

  • Flexible Working
  • Pension Scheme
  • Excellent personal and professional development opportunities
  • Opportunities to make a difference
  • Free on-site parking
