We’re a Joint Environmental Health Service delivering services to two Councils on the edge of the Peak District and the Sheffield City Region. Following a service review, our Strategic Alliance is investing in the service to ensure we deliver effective and efficient public protection services.

 Service and improvement planning  Strategy and policy development  Project management, support and planning  Organisation and cultural change  Business support  Training and development

You will be a collaborative and engaging individual with vision and creativity and an enthusiastic desire to contribute to the development of a high performing Environmental Health Service.
