Public Protection's Pollution Control Team is currently seeking to recruit an enthusiastic, highly motivated Technical Officer. The Team is based in West Hartford Community Fire Station, Cramlington, Northumberland, NE23 3JP and sits within the Council's Public Health, Inequalities and Stronger Communities function.

With 14 officers, the Pollution Control Team's areas of responsibilities include, noise and nuisance investigations, assessment of air quality, identification and remediation of contaminated land, permitting of industrial sites and regulation of private water supplies. Reporting to a Senior Environmental Health Officer, the successful applicant will be responsible for case management of a varied workload including the sampling and risk assessment of private water supplies and providing support to monitor air quality.
