Help shape one of the UK's most ambitious cities.
Nottingham is changing. Major regeneration projects, city centre renewal, new homes, investment in transport and infrastructure, and a clear long-term City Vision are creating exciting opportunities across the city. As a Core City, Nottingham delivers a scale and complexity of development that few local authorities can match.
At the same time, the building control profession has never been more important. Following the Building Safety Act and the renewed national focus on public safety and building standards, Building Control is at the forefront of creating safer places for people to live, work and visit.
Nottingham City Council is investing significantly in its Building Control service. We are expanding our team, modernising our technology, improving our systems, and creating clear career pathways for staff. We are also preparing for the opportunities presented by Local Government Reorganisation and the continued growth of Nottingham as a major regional centre.
We are now looking for three Building Control Officers to join our growing team.
This is an opportunity to work on a diverse and challenging range of projects, from domestic developments through to complex urban regeneration schemes, while playing a key role in protecting public safety. You'll join a supportive, forward-thinking service that values professional expertise and actively invests in the development of its people.
Whether you are looking to broaden your experience, progress your career, or simply be part of an ambitious service with strong leadership and investment behind it, Nottingham offers a compelling opportunity.
As a Building Control Officer, you will:
- Assess Building Regulation applications and associated submissions.
- Undertake site inspections to ensure compliance with Building Regulations and associated legislation.
- Provide technical advice and guidance to builders, architects, developers and members of the public.
- Maintain accurate electronic records and case files.
- Support the delivery of safe, sustainable and accessible buildings.
- Work collaboratively with planning, highways, housing, fire service and other professional partners.
- Maintain your professional registration and continue developing your technical expertise.
At Nottingham, we believe our people are our greatest asset.
We are committed to developing the next generation of building control professionals and supporting experienced inspectors to progress their careers. Our investment in learning and development includes:
- Structured CPD programmes.
- Support with progression to higher RBI classes.
- Access to technical training and specialist courses.
- Mentoring and coaching from experienced professionals.
- Career pathways from apprentice through to senior, principal and management roles.
- Opportunities to work on a broad range of projects that provide valuable experience for professional development.
You'll be joining a service with a strong future. Significant investment is being made in staffing, technology and operational systems to ensure Nottingham Building Control is equipped to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing profession.
If you are passionate about public safety, professional standards and helping to shape the future of a growing and ambitious city, we'd love to hear from you.
Join Nottingham Building Control and help build a safer, stronger city.
