Our Private Sector Housing team seeks to bring about improvements in the conditions and standards of management of private sector housing.

You’ll assist the team in achieving this by leading on the delivery on housing enforcement standards to ensure private sector residential accommodation throughout the District meets statutory standards and help to bring about improvements in conditions and standards of management for residents.

In addition to this, you’ll also carry out regular inspections of mobile park homes and park home sites in accordance with the relevant legislation and model standards.
