About the Role

Anyone wanting to carrying out works on the road network in Leicestershire will need to apply for a permit before starting; typically this is utility companies, LCC and anyone that is working on a development for which planning permission has been granted and that affects the highway.

• Improve journey times and reliability for all road users
• Reduce congestion caused by roadworks
• Improve the information available on road works, including advanced warning and duration details
• Increase the planning and control of works to improve safety and reduce damage to the road
Working with and providing support to a Network Coordinator and Streetworks Compliance Inspector your focus will be on a specific region of the County’s road network.
As a Network Management Technician you will be responsible for assessing permit applications, (making corrections and appropriate suggestions as required), and then issuing licenses to allow works to proceed.
You will also support the Street Works Compliance Inspector, who carry out inspections on the network, by providing them with information, improvement notices or sanctions, including issuing penalties.
In addition, you may also support the monitoring of progress and a satisfactory conclusion of any remedial works and report any non-compliance for further action.
