An opportunity has arisen to be part of the Sheffield Community Safety Team which is responsible for coordinating partner activity to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour in Sheffield.

We are advertising one role, a Safer Neighbourhood Coordinator within the multi-agency Fortify Team.

Safer Neighbourhood Coordinators act as the local problem-solving lead for reducing crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour by closely monitoring analytical products and intelligence, ensuring appropriate and timely responses.

A key part of the role involves working with partners to achieve the city’s strategic crime and disorder priorities by achieving local buy-in and leading on the delivery of local action plans.

This post will specifically support our multi-agency organised crime team, with the purpose of coordinating partners to address organised crime and prevent vulnerable people from being exploited by organised crime groups.

All successful candidates will be required to pass the Police vetting process.

We are investing in our workforce and are promoting opportunities to our under-represented groups. We value equality, diversity and inclusion and are focused on increasing the diversity of our workforce, particularly the number of Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic, Disabled and LGBTQ+ people, so that our teams reflect the communities in the city we serve. We are also supporting staff with unpaid caring responsibilities to work flexibly.

It is a great time to join us and we welcome your application.

Under the Guaranteed Interview scheme, applicants who are disabled, care leavers, or armed forces veterans will be guaranteed an interview if they meet the essential criteria and indicate their eligibility on the application form.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all individuals, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for everyone and where appropriate to the role the successful applicant will be required to undertake relevant safeguarding checks.

Full-time employees work 37 hours for 52 weeks of the year and we offer a generous holiday entitlement. We are open to discussions about a wide range of flexible working opportunities which benefit you and the Council, including reduced hour contracts, working part time or as a job share.

If you are appointed to this role, your starting salary will be at the bottom of the grade. If you provide payslip evidence that your basic pay is greater than the bottom of the grade, we will consider starting you at the point of minimum advantage within the grade.

Equality of pay is extremely important to us. All roles at Sheffield City Council are going through an evaluation process which may result in changes to some pay arrangements from 2026.
