We are looking for a dynamic individual who has demonstrable experience of ASB legislation and the law relating to street based ASB.  You will also have experience of motivating complex and diverse client groups to make positive changes, sustaining housing, health and or work outcomes. The ability to network, build enabling relationships and work effectively in a multi-agency context across Bournemouth, is also required.

In return, we offer a range of benefits including a pension scheme, staff discounts scheme and initiatives to help you maintain a healthy work/life balance. We are also committed to providing our staff with a wide range of learning and development opportunities; in support of their personal and professional development.
