TOWN RANGER VACANCY

 Part time Town Ranger (18.5 hours per week)

Actual Salary £12,351 per annum

 Are you looking for a job that can make a real difference to the community? A job that offers an excellent work/life balance, keeps you active and engaged with the public. If the answer is yes, then the following opportunity could be for you.

At Alsager Town Council we are looking to increase our existing, highly popular Town Ranger service by appointing a second, part-time Town Ranger. The overall aim of the service is to

ensure that the town of Alsager is a clean, safe and attractive place to live and visit, with well-maintained streets and public spaces. Works will include the maintenance of public open spaces, horticultural features, highway verges, car parks, formal parks and street cleansing duties. You will also be working on town council buildings and land.

You will be primarily working alone, outdoors, using your considerable DIY and communication skills to keep our town clean and our community engaged and safe. A typical week would involve firstly looking into our communities’ requests, planning works with colleagues and undertaking the works on site. Finally providing feedback to customers and colleagues alike. You could be using the Town Ranger van; therefore a full driving licence is essential.

As a Town Ranger, you will be representing the Council, out in the community. It is therefore incredibly important that you have a caring, understanding and professional attitude towards your work and how you interact with the public.

The successful candidate should have as a minimum, background/experience of carrying out minor maintenance work and DIY. Knowledge of Health and Safety at work would be a bonus.
