About Camden
At London Borough of Camden, we are building somewhere everyone can thrive. Through We Make Camden, we are working alongside our residents, communities and partners to create a borough where everyone feels safe at home and safe in their neighbourhoods.

Our Public Safety Division plays a key role in achieving this ambition. Working closely with communities, partners and internal services, we take a proactive and collaborative approach to tackling anti-social behaviour, environmental crime and other issues that impact the quality of life for residents and businesses.

About the role
We are looking for a Community Safety Enforcement Team Leader to help lead a team of Community Safety Enforcement Officers delivering visible, community-focused enforcement activity across the borough.

Working closely with the Community Safety Enforcement Managers, you will support the delivery of on-street patrols, interventions and enforcement activity to address anti-social behaviour and environmental crime. This includes investigating cases, responding to complaints from residents and businesses, and using a range of statutory enforcement powers such as issuing Fixed Penalty Notices and preparing prosecution files where necessary.

You will lead and support a team of officers, ensuring cases are managed effectively and that enforcement activity is proportionate, evidence-based and aligned with current legislation. You will also contribute to targeted campaigns and initiatives linked to Camden Community Safety Partnership priorities, including work to tackle anti-social behaviour, environmental crime, serious violence and violence against women and girls.

About you
You will be passionate about improving neighbourhood safety and have experience working with enforcement powers to address anti-social behaviour or environmental crime. You will have strong knowledge of relevant legislation and the ability to apply professional judgement to achieve fair and proportionate outcomes.

As a team leader, you will be confident supporting and guiding officers in a fast-paced operational environment while maintaining high standards of case management and evidence gathering. You will also be comfortable engaging with residents, businesses, elected members and partner organisations to resolve issues and build strong relationships within the community.

You will share Camden’s commitment to equality, partnership working and continuous improvement, and be motivated to help deliver safer communities for residents and businesses across the borough.
